Question

Accepted Answer

According to the 'India State of Forest Report 2021', Mizoram has the highest percentage of forest cover relative to its geographical area. This means that of all the states listed, Mizoram has the largest proportion of its land covered by forests. The report provides specific data on forest cover percentages for each state, and Mizoram's percentage is the highest among the given options.

Here's why the other options are incorrect, based on the premise that Mizoram is the correct answer according to the report:

*   **Arunachal Pradesh:** While Arunachal Pradesh has a significant amount of forest cover in terms of area, its percentage of forest cover relative to its geographical area is lower than that of Mizoram, according to the 'India State of Forest Report 2021'.

*   **Sikkim:** Sikkim is known for its green cover, but its percentage of forest cover relative to its geographical area is also lower than Mizoram's, as per the report's findings.

*   **Manipur:** Manipur also has substantial forest cover, but again, the 'India State of Forest Report 2021' indicates that its percentage of forest cover relative to its geographical area is less than that of Mizoram.

Therefore, based on the 'India State of Forest Report 2021', Mizoram (Option 2) is the state with the highest percentage of forest cover relative to its geographical area among the options provided.
