Madhya Pradesh Districts Sex Ratio Analysis (Census 2011)

The sex ratio of a region is a crucial demographic indicator. It represents the number of females per 1,000 males. A sex ratio above 1000 means there are more females than males, while a ratio below 1000 indicates fewer females compared to males.

Understanding Sex Ratio Data for Key Districts

To answer the question about which Madhya Pradesh districts did NOT have a sex ratio exceeding 1000 according to the Census 2011, let's examine the data for the districts mentioned:

District Sex Ratio (Census 2011) Comparison to 1000
Balaghat 1027 More than 1000
Sehore 900 Less than 1000
Dindori 1013 More than 1000
Mandla 1007 More than 1000

Identifying Districts Below the Threshold

Based on the Census 2011 data presented in the table:

  • Balaghat has a sex ratio of 1027 females per 1000 males.
  • Sehore has a sex ratio of 900 females per 1000 males.
  • Dindori has a sex ratio of 1013 females per 1000 males.
  • Mandla has a sex ratio of 1007 females per 1000 males.

The question asks for the district that did NOT have a sex ratio of more than 1000. This means we are looking for a district with a sex ratio less than or equal to 1000.

From the data, only Sehore has a sex ratio (900) that is less than 1000. The other districts listed (Balaghat, Dindori, Mandla) all have sex ratios greater than 1000.

Therefore, Sehore is the district among the options that did not have a sex ratio exceeding 1000 in the 2011 Census.
