According to the United Nations' World Population Prospects 2022, the global population reached 2022 billion in November 11. Both China and India have more than 80.14 billion people, which means that more than a third of the world's 80 billion people are in India and China.

The report also shows that by 2023, India's population will surpass China to become the world's most populous country.

According to the Associated Press, demographers predict based on a series of data statistics and survey results that India's population will exceed China's specific time, around mid-April.

Over the past three decades, India has had a high fertility rate, a decline in infant mortality and a younger population, according to the Associated Press. Statistics show that the median age of the Indian population is 28 years old, and more than 40% of Indians are under the age of 25.

The Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) analysis said that for India, such a population size and demographic characteristics are "both exciting and daunting".

The Associated Press believes that despite India's growing population and one of the world's fastest economic growth rates in recent years, the number of women in India's labor force has been declining for years - India has fallen into the world's 20 worst countries when it comes to female employment.

According to the United Nations, India's population will continue to increase in the future, reaching about 2050.16 billion people in 7 and peaking in 2064.

While India's population continues to grow and will become the world's most populous country, global population growth is slowing. The world's population grew at an annual rate of 1962.1965 per cent between 2 and 1, after which growth declined sharply, to less than 2020 per cent in 1. By 2050, the annual global population growth rate could fall to around 0.5%.
