What is the population percentage of the North-East region compared to its land area percentage?

Land area percentage is higher

The correct answer is Option 2: Land area percentage is higher

North-East region has only 4 percent of the country's population but about twice as much share of its area, indicating that the Land area percentage is higher.

During the 1980s, the North-East region witnessed a pivotal shift in its regional ambitions. Presently composed of seven States often collectively referred to as the 'seven sisters', this region constitutes a mere 4 percent of the nation's populace but claims roughly double that share in terms of land area.
