*The figures related to area under forest are taken from latest “State of Forest Report,” of the Forest Survey of India, Dehradun. The other categories of land use (Part-I), net irrigated area, gross irrigated area, net area sown and area under crops as the case may be, are taken from latest Agriculture Census or are estimated based on latest available year data received from the States/UTs respectively

‘0’ means area is less than 500 hectares.; (p): Provisional.; Blank space denotes not available or no reporting of data from the States
