Districts in Uttar Pradesh with Negligible Proportion of Scheduled Tribe Population
Districts in Uttar Pradesh with a negligible proportion of Scheduled Tribe population are those where the ST population is very low or almost non-existent. In this case, the correct answer is option 'D', which is 57 districts.
Explanation
- Uttar Pradesh is a state with a diverse population, including various Scheduled Tribes.
- However, there are certain districts where the Scheduled Tribe population is negligible.
- These districts have a very low percentage of ST population compared to the total population of the district.
- In Uttar Pradesh, out of the total 75 districts, 57 districts have a negligible proportion of Scheduled Tribe population.
- This indicates that the ST population is not evenly distributed across all districts in the state.
- The concentration of Scheduled Tribe population is higher in certain districts while being negligible in others.
Conclusion
- Understanding the distribution of Scheduled Tribe population across districts is crucial for effective policymaking and implementation of welfare schemes.
- Identifying districts with a negligible proportion of ST population helps in targeting interventions and resources towards areas where they are most needed.
