The population of India will overtake China in 2021
What's your opinion?How do you feel? Happy, worry, welcome??.....
Here’s a comparison of some key numbers from the world’s two most populous nations:
SIZE
IN 2011
China: 1,339,724,852 India: 1,210,193,422
The difference: Almost 130 million. But because India is growing so much faster than China (see below), it is expected to become the world’s most populous nation in another two decades.
DECADAL GROWTH
China: 73.9 million (5.84%) India: 181 million (17.64%)
year growth:
China: 0.57% India: 1.64%
MEN PER 100 WOMEN
China: 105 India: 106
YOUTH
China (0-14): 222,459,737 India (0-6): 158,789,287
The youth population numbers aren’t directly comparable yet but it’s clear even from this data that India’s 0-14 population is higher than China’s. Indian projections from 2006 suggested that population would be around 346,942,000. The actual numbers may be a little higher than that since the project put India’s 2011 population at 1,192,507,000, lower than it turned out to be. Some experts are saying that it’s now time for China to reverse its one-child policy.
LITERACY (%)
China: 95.92 India: 74.04
In 2021,the population of India will overtake China:
China: 1.4179billion 1.4237billion
For me, welcome Indian overtake China in population, breathe a sigh of relief;
