The state covers an area of 19,739 square miles (51,125 square km) and Population is 10,116,752 since (2011). <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The state is divided into two divisions, Garhwal and Kumaon, with a total of 13 districts. Garhwal consists of 7 districts and Kumaon consists of 6 districts.The official language of Uttarakhand is Hindi, which is spoken natively by 43% of the population. Additionally, the classical language Sanskrit has been declared as the second official language.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Uttarakhand has a total area of 53,566 km<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (20,682 sq mi),of which 86% is mountainous and 65% is covered by forest.Most of the northern part of the state is covered by high Himalayan peaks and glaciers. In the first half of the nineteenth century, the expanding development of Indian roads, railways and other physical infrastructure was giving rise to concerns over indiscriminate logging, particularly in the Himalaya. Two of the most important rivers in Hinduism originate in the glaciers of Uttarakhand, the Ganges at Gangotri and the Yamuna at Yamunotri. They are fed by myriad lakes, glacial melts and streams.These two along with <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Badrinath<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Kedarnath<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> from the <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Chota Char Dham<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, a holy pilgrimage for the Hindus.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Uttarakhand can be divided into several physiographic zones, all running parallel to each other from northwest to southeast. The northern zone, popularly known as the Himadri, contains segments of the Zaskar and the Great Himalaya ranges, with elevations ranging roughly from 10,000 to 25,000 feet (3,000 to 7,600 metres). Most of the major peaks are located in this zone. Adjacent to and south of the Great Himalayas is a zone containing the Lesser Himalayas, known popularly as the Himachal, with elevations between about 6,500 and 10,000 feet (2,000 to 3,000 metres); the zone has two linear ranges\u2014the Mussoorie and the Nag Tibba. To the south of the Himachal is a stretch of the Siwalik Range. The entire area containing the Himadri, the Himachal, and the Siwaliks is broadly known as the Kumaun Himalayas.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Uttarakhand has a highly varied topography, with snow-covered peaks, glaciers, deep canyons, roaring streams, beautiful lakes, and a few patches of dusty plains in the south. Some of the highest mountains in the world are found in Uttarakhand.\u00a0 These include Nanda Devi (25,646 feet), which is the second highest peak in India, Kamet (25,446 feet), and Badrinath (23,420 feet<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Basic_Facts_about_Uttarakhand\"><\/span><strong>Basic Facts about Uttarakhand<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The High Court of the state is located in Nainital.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The winter capital of Uttarakhand in Dehradun and the summer is Gairsain<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Present Chief Minister of Uttarakhand is Pushkar Singh Dami.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gurmit Singh is the Present governor of Uttarakhand.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Official languages of the state are Hindi and Sanskrit.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Formed on November 9, 2000 and changed its name in January 2007.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The state has two divisions including 13 districts, named as Garhwal and Kumaon.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Uttarakhand has 5 Lok Sabha seats and 3 Raj Sabha seats.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ganges at Gangotri and Yamuna at Yamunotri are the two famous rivers originating from Uttarakhand.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Alpine Musk deer is the National Animal and Himalayan monal is the National Bird of Uttarakhand<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">National Sports of the state Uttarakhand is Football.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"GK_Quiz_on_Uttarakhand\"><\/span><strong>GK Quiz on Uttarakhand<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><b>Q.1.<\/b><b>When was Uttaranchal carved out of Uttar Pradesh?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Answer:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> November 9, 2000<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Q.2.which is the official language of Uttarakhand?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Answer: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hindi<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Q.3.In which year Uttaranchal was renamed as Uttarakhand?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Answer:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> 1 January 2007<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Q.4.What is the Total Area of Uttarakhand?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Answer:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> 53,483 km<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">sq<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>\u00a0Q.5.Who was the first Chief Minister of Uttarakhand?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Answer:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Nityanand Swami<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Q.6.Who was the First Governor of Uttarakhand?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Answer:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Surjit Singh Barnala<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Q.7.Besides Hindi, which is the official language of uttarakhand?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Answer: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sanskrit<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Q.8.Winter capital of the state Uttarakhand is ________.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Answer: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dehradun<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Q.9.Which is the 27th State of India?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Answer: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Uttarakhand<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Q.10.What is the Total Area of Uttarakhand?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Answer:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> 53,483 km<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Q.11.<\/b><b>Where is the Judicial Capital of Uttarakhand?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Answer: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nainital<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Q.12.<\/b><b>How many Rajya Sabha Seats does Uttarakhand have?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Answer: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3 Seats<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Q.13.How many Lok Sabha Seats does Uttarakhand have?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Answer: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">5 Seats<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Q.14.How many MLAs are in the Uttarakhand Legislative Assembly?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Answer:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> 70 members<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Q.15.How many Districts are in Uttarakhand?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Answer: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">13 (Thirteen)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Q.16.
