Muslim Population in India: Percentage in States and Metropolitan Cities

India ranks second in terms of Muslim population in the world. 

Muslims are in majority in Jammu & Kashmir state and Lakshadwip. 

They comprise around 33% in Assam, 25% in West Bengal and 24% in Kerala.

For almost a thousand years Muslim kings ruled India but the population of Muslims is most in regions where the Mughals and other Muslims kings had no influence. 

Kerala and Assam are such states. Uttar Pradesh (19%) and Bihar (16%) also have large Muslim population.

In States, highest population of Muslims is in Uttar Pradesh or UP that has 35 million or 3.5 crore Muslims. 

Bihar is second. Maharashtra has more than 10 million Muslims. 6arnataka, Andhra Pradesh and Jharkhand have strong presence of Muslims. 

In percentage terms Kashmir has 70% Muslims.

Mumbai has 25 lakh or 2.5 million Muslims while Kolkata, Delhi and Hyderabad have more than one million Muslims each. 

In states Punjab, Himachal Pradesh, Orissa and Chhattisgarh have relatively less Muslim population but in  cities in all these states also the mosques and madarsas are a common sight.

    3. Is this Mohammedan mathematics? The Muslim population of India which actually third in the world not second is about 14% give or take a fraction, not some entirely fabricated and baseless figure.

  9. Christianity is winning over many followers in most of the economically backward areas it most noticeable in many district of Andhra Pradesh and Ordesa because to the poor following a church is more useful and beneficial than following any other religion, first of it will guaranty them good education for free and in many cases even financial and medical assistance, many many people converted in Andhra , churches are are very common site everywhere and people are happy following them, and also product placing program that christian organizations have adopted and clearly visible (in almost all indian movies) is giving its fruits abundantly.

  15. Hindus, Muslims, Christian etc. are 0 % because nobody is following his or her religion exactly as mentioned in their (?) religious texts. Taking birth in any community is just a registered trade Mark to just fill the hungry bellies of the unemployed priesly classes and the fuel of greedy politicians.
