Preserved original writing. This article keeps the author’s original wording and figures. It may use provisional data, historical boundaries or figures awaiting correction. Read it as an archive record; the checked reference profiles use a separately reconciled dataset.
Data review note. Uttar Pradesh’s population figure does not reconcile with its stated national share. Multiple values in the original table require audit.
