What do you think about India becoming the world's most populous country?

According to latest data by the United Nations, India has surpassed China in population. I am honestly worried now 😱

Over population is the world's biggest problem, and at the root of a lot more problems. India is the biggest contributor to world population growth. That makes them the biggest contributor to the world's biggest problem. The country should be boycotted and sanctioned until they get their population under control.

So India need a one-child policy like China had? still it's Africa who has too much children.

It's a little bit concerning. Not because of the country itself but because this fact will bring more problems. Such as more poverty, more unemployment, more environmental issues, more inequality. Perhaps, in some areas more crime because of the poverty.

Thanks for the MHO.

It was bound to happen, with the available data even easy to pre-calculate.
Way more drastic however is the predicted shrinking of the Chinese population (down to 800 million), due to the decades-long one-child-policy and a large aging demographic element.

It is a temporary issue.

The good thing is the birth rate is declining. But not because of development. It is because of birth related issues, problems, diseases, whatever you call it. Both in males and females.

Plus the influence of Western culture is prevalent in India.

Now the problems being faced by the Indian Government regarding the reproductive health of its citizens is a serious issue.

Unlike the Chinese, they still know how to have children. It's good news. The remainder of the earth beyond India, China and New Jersey are NOT over-populated. and for you snowflakes, they are the worst contributors to unproven, alleged Global Warming.

I don't care. It doesn't really effect me. More hot Indian girls😂 I'd rather have more Indians than Chineses.

In all seriousness though, why are you worried?

[FilmGuy93]

I'm concerned... india was having infrastructure problems and starvation before. That will only continue to get worse.

No problem with it I love India ❤

Why are you worried?

[Babygirl_S]

Overpopulation is not a good thing.

[htmndg183]

No thoughts really and tbh not surprising either.
