Complete answer:
It is arranged on the northwestern side of India, where it contains by far most of the wide and reserved Thar Desert (in any case called the "Exceptional Indian Desert") and offers an edge with the Pakistani regions of Punjab toward the northwest and Sindh westward, along the Sutlej-Indus stream valley. Its geological area is $23.3$ to $30.12$ North latitude and $69.30$ to $78.17$ East longitude, with the Tropic of Cancer going through the southernmost tip of the state. The national average of the population is 382 for every sq km whereas the thickness of the state of Rajasthan was 165 for every sq km according to the 2001 Census. The whole region (zone) of Rajasthan is 342,239 sq. km according to Census 2011.
