Detailed Solution

The above statement is false.
Muslims are a minority community in India and constitute about 14 per cent of India's total population. However, their representation in the various walks of life has been below expectations. In comparison to the other communities, Muslims in India have been deprived of the benefits of socio-economic development, over the years owing to various reasons. As a result, they are found lagging behind other social groups on several indicators such as basic amenities, literacy and public employment. The literacy rate is also the lowest among the major religious groups. The average years of schooling are also low.
Thus, the correct statement would be, the literacy rate is quite low among Muslims.
