A33
B26
C25
D30
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. 26
1. Administrative units are reported separately for Census 2011 and for the present.
2. As per Census 2011, Gujarat had 26 districts, 225 talukas and 348 towns.
3. The 33-district figure is the present-day count, not the 2011 count, so it is a trap.
4. Therefore Gujarat had 26 districts as per Census 2011.
