Which of the following Union Territories had the lowest density of population according to Census 2011?
Andaman and Nicobar Islands
Population density is the number of persons living per square kilometre of area.
Among the Union Territories in Census 2011, the Andaman and Nicobar Islands recorded the lowest density at about 46 persons per km2, because a very small population is spread over a large island territory.
By contrast, Delhi and Chandigarh are highly urbanised and had extremely high densities (over 9,000 persons per km2), while Lakshadweep and Puducherry were also densely settled.
Hence, the Union Territory with the lowest population density was the Andaman and Nicobar Islands.
