Answer:
The
following examples show why distribution of population in India is uneven
(i) Fertility of the soil and availability of water in the Northern
Plains and Kerala causes a large number of people to be employed in agriculture.
(ii) An undulating terrain and mountainous areas of Arunachal
Pradesh, Mizoram and Jammu and Kashmir do not provide much scope of a
livelihood and so they have a low population density.
(iii) An equable climate and reasonable amount of rainfall
in most of the coastal states favour people living in such areas. Thus they
have a moderate population density.
(iv) A harsh climate like the desert of Western Rajasthan deters
people from living in such locations, leading to a sparse population there.
(v) Development of transport, industrialization and urbanisation
in urban areas increases the population density in such areas.
