Which of the following is NOT true about the definition of urban sett…

The correct answer is Option (1) → All places which have municipality only

Option (1) All places which have municipality only — False. The Census of 1991 counts places with a municipality, corporation, cantonment board or notified town area committee. The word ‘only’ leaves out three of these four bodies, so the statement does not match the definition. One small word, ‘only’, made the whole definition wrong.

Option (4) Density of population of at least 400 persons per square kilometer — True. The place must have a density of at least 400 persons per square kilometre.
