Questioning the real number of China's population .. Is India the most populous in the world?

There is considerable doubt about the most populous country between China and India because of the possibility of Chinese authorities concealing the real number of its population, which makes the figures cast doubtable, compared to the health figures disclosed by India, thus continuing to ask the puzzling question: Is China the most populous country in the world Mother of India?

Russian journalist Vladimir Scusarif says Chinese officials exaggerate birth data to hide the dire consequences of harsh demographic politics and get more funds for primary schools from the authorities, making their supremacy over India, which has long been known for its high population, questionable.

Statistics
According to official statistics, China has an estimated 1.4 billion people, but an American expert says China has a population of about 115 million, and China's population statistics depend on politics.

The Communist Party's policy on the demographic problem was subject to sharp fluctuations. In the 1950s, leaders concluded that if population growth was not determined, the country would not be able to meet its food needs.

A number of forums have been set up to educate people on how to avoid the birth of an unwanted child. Mao Zedong announced a new strategy to ensure rapid access to the economies of Western countries.

The chaos created by the Great Leap and the Cultural Revolution ended with the return of Beijing to the family planning policy. As a result, a law was passed to allow each family to have one child. However, some aspects - including national minorities - were excluded from these measures before The demographic policy of the country should be re-discussed.

Exaggerate
"Data on population density are deliberately exaggerated, meaning that China is lagging behind India in terms of population," the author quoted an American researcher at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in the United States as saying.

By contrast, India's population, according to United Nations data, has reached 2019 billion and 370 million people, meaning it ranks second in the world after China, but India can outperform China and become the first country in terms of population Eight years later.

The author also attributed the researcher to the US researcher as saying that Beijing's economic and social policy and even foreign affairs are based on false demographic information. He accuses the Family Planning Bureau, which wants to show rapid population growth and conceal the reality of strict policy of reducing the birth rate in previous years.

"The American researcher was not the first to introduce such a hypothesis and point to the practices of some Chinese authorities, but the policy is gradually being cut off," said the author, deputy director of the Asia and Africa Institute at the Moscow State University, Andrey Carnev. Should be taken with some skepticism, especially as it is inaccurate. "
