Which division of Rajasthan contains the largest number of districts?

  1. A.Jaipur
  2. B.Udaipur
  3. C.Jodhpur
  4. D.Ajmer

Correct answer

C. Jodhpur

Explanation

The correct answer is C, Jodhpur. Jodhpur division holds eight districts, namely Jodhpur, Barmer, Balotra, Jaisalmer, Jalore, Pali, Phalodi and Sirohi, which is more than any other division of the state. Option A is wrong because Jaipur division has seven districts: Jaipur, Alwar, Dausa, Kotputli-Behror, Khairthal-Tijara, Jhunjhunu and Sikar. Option B is wrong because Udaipur division also has seven, namely Udaipur, Banswara, Chittorgarh, Dungarpur, Pratapgarh, Rajsamand and Salumbar, so it ties with Jaipur for second place. Option D is wrong because Ajmer division has six districts: Ajmer, Bhilwara, Beawar, Didwana-Kuchaman, Nagaur and Tonk. The smallest divisions by this measure are Bikaner and Kota, with four districts each. A quick way to remember the shape of the state is that the two western divisions, Jodhpur and Bikaner, cover the largest area between them, yet Bikaner does it with only four districts while Jodhpur needs eight.
