Detailed Solution

Sex ratio means number of females/1000 males.

This ratio shows the number of women per 1000 men. This ratio ideally should be 1:1. Deviations from this trend are often observed. According to 2011 census sex ratio is 940, it means per 1000 males in India there are 940 females . It is still a matter of concern as female foeticide is still very prevalent. In Kerala and Puducherry there are more females than males.

Hence the correct answer is option B.
