India is soon to overtake China as the world’s most populous country, according to the United Nations Population Division.<\/p>\n

John Wilmoth, the director of the UN Population Division, stated this at a press conference held on Monday at the UN’s New York headquarters.<\/p>\n

Wilmoth claimed that the fertility rates in the two countries were the primary cause of this trend, noting that China and India together made up more than one-third of the world’s eight billion people.<\/p>\n

\u201cBy the end of April, India\u2019s population is expected to reach 1,425,775,850 people, with projections indicating further growth for several decades more.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s slightly higher than China\u2019s global record of 1.4 billion in 2022.<\/p>\n

\u201cChina\u2019s population reached its peak size in 2022 and has begun to decline.<\/p>\n

\u201cProjections indicate that the size of the Chinese population could drop below one billion before the end of the century,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

With nearly identical levels of fertility in 1971, just under six births per woman, the countries have charted their population path into the 21st century, according to the UN Department of Economic and Social Affairs.<\/p>\n

By the end of the 1970s, the fertility rate in China fell by half, to three births per woman. Meanwhile, it took India more than three decades for its fertility rate to reach that level.<\/p>\n

\u201cDuring the second half of the twentieth century, both countries made concerted efforts to curb rapid population growth through policies that targeted fertility levels.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese policies, together with investments in human capital and gender equality, contributed to China\u2019s plummeting fertility rate in the 1970s and to the more gradual declines that followed<\/a> in the 1980s and 1990s,\u201d DESA said.<\/p>\n

By 2022, China had one of the world\u2019s lowest fertility rates, which was 1.2 births per woman on average over a lifetime, according to the UN World Population Prospects 2022 report.<\/p>\n

In the 1980s, China implemented a so-called \u201cone-child policy\u201d that limited families to one child each, which ended in 2016.<\/p>\n

At the same time, India\u2019s current fertility rate \u2013 two births per woman \u2013 is just below the replacement threshold of 2.1, the level required for population stabilisation in the long run in the absence of migration, says the UN report.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe crossover reminds us that the number of older persons is growing rapidly,\u201d Wilmoth said.<\/p>\n

Between 2023 and 2015, the number of persons aged 65 or over is expected to nearly double in China and more than double in India, he added.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese trends call attention to the challenges of providing social support and protection to growing numbers of older persons.<\/p>\n

\u201cNow is the time to think for the long term and to promote greater solidarity within societies and between generations.<\/p>\n

\u201cCentral to this long-term planning are efforts to combat climate change,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

He added that it was essential that increasing numbers of people and increasing incomes per capita in China, India, and throughout the world did not undermine efforts to move towards more sustainable consumption and production.<\/p>\n

To mitigate the most severe impacts of climate change, he said all countries must urgently move away from over-dependence on fossil fuel energy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
