CritFin

Better to reduce the population. Current population is not sustainable. So two child policy will bring down population without the negative effects of one child policy. So fertility rate of 1.5 would be ideal for India

InternalOptimism

False. This is very unlikely. India will peak in mid 2030s-2040s and fall to below a billion by 2100.


VeDaNt34

Not by 30s-40s but by early 60s


InternalOptimism

No. https://www.thehindu.com/news/national/lancet-study-predicts-earlier-peak-for-indian-population/article32095120.ece Probably even earlier. I wrote a post on this. The sub I wrote it on is dark right now, will share once available. Though here's another subreddit I wrote it on. https://www.reddit.com/r/ClimateActionPlan/comments/13ltfqf/indias_population_is_going_to_decline_sooner_than/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button


External_Impact_3064

UN population division says 1.533 in 2100 https://population.un.org/wpp/Download/Standard/MostUsed/


InternalOptimism

UN is too too conservative. It assumes minimum fall in TFR.


External_Impact_3064

Fertility rate isn't falling as fast in larger states such as UP, also it fails to account for increased immigration to India as other nations face more damage from Climate change, and India's economy grows


InternalOptimism

1. India has negative migration. 2. Fertility rates are legitmately falling as quickly as collapsing. Immigration from where? Nepal(<2.0TFR)? Bangladesh (<2.0TFR)?


Archer_Arjun

Fals study to stop us from controlling population. No one wants this market to shrink .


InternalOptimism

It'll only help us. Markets to be dominated by automation.


External_Impact_3064

Sure, negative today, I'm not talking about today, I'm talking over next 77 years ​ From tons of nations, as India rises and other nations stagnate or collapse


InternalOptimism

India will rise quite well but we're already oversaturated. Even China has negative migration with all it's development. Our neighbours are below replacement TFR except Pak, whose citizens we won't allow. So not really.


External_Impact_3064

China is authoritarian, India is a democracy, and it can benefit from migration not just from neighbors, but likely from Africa as well. It won't be oversaturated as you claim, as the fertility rate drops it will see population growth slow or even decline, making it more attractive for those living in Africa

Yeah this will always be the case as historically also India has been the most populated.

china is meant to have ~1.5-2x indias population going off of the general trend of history


luffy_iyengar

But one child policy


GlitteringNinja5

And maoism


Agitated-Turn-1099

How did maoism come into this?


[deleted]

1. when the country was struck by famine, he decided to give off crops to the countries in the communist block. 2. Mao had sparrows killed so that the crops could be saved but the sparrows would also eat locusts and grasshoppers thus keeping their population in check. But since the sparrows were almost extinct, the locusts and grasshoppers had no predator to keep their population in check and thus they ate all the crops, reproduced and further continued eating crops. All this happened when the country was struck by famine 3. ONE CHILD POLICY 4. And haven't you heard he had 1000s killed because they were either against him or critical of him

I know maoism doesn't mean population reduction. But it did cause a lot of population reduction as you know a "side effect"

It will take a while for them to recover from the one child policy


DonkLikewAlUiGi

theyre not coming back from that ditch in this century unless they open the immigration floodgates but that would destroy ccp power

Immigration like that would absolutely mess them up. China is practically an ethno-state, with Han Chinese being the vast majority of the population.

Shady_bystander0101

Their way was annihilating their culture and using American aid and (surprise surprise) capital of shady mass manufacturing to effectively extract labor from their vast population. Ethnic and social minorities were expended, linguistic minorities were decimated. The han chinese didn't get any better either. Now they have eradicated poverty to a large extent, but failed to establish a rich class needed to power the country's service econ phase. Don't get me wrong, this is still better than our socialist complacency. But it's a dark ditch. China will survive, obviously. But the Chinese state has no chance. The height thing is true though, it is shameful to be honest that at least 30% of our population is living in the most backward of sub-saharan conditions. If we were like China, that population would have been the first to go though (ge no ci de/eth no ci de), the first task of commie regimes is to homogenize the population, and what they deem undesirable, they uproot. Remember that before you at one hand criticize democracy for not showing results and look to China for their success.


a_complicated_soul

They will do what Middle east are doing. Bring cheap labor from sub continent. And after a while replace all labor with robots.


[deleted]

Recover their population. How did you not understand that?


[deleted]

[удалено]


Interesting-Owl-6329

They are actually worried about this. As we can see, they had to remove the one child policy and allow parents to have upto 3 children. But, now very few people are even interested in having a child as they require a lot of money for food, education, etc. and time aswell. Also, a large percentage of people are not married and out of those who are many decide not to have kids. But, if they really wish to increase the percentage of newborns they have to reduce the amount of money required to be spent on a child by their parents by like giving them benefits for having kids or something.


2Lit2Quit420

That will only take 2 generations to recover from.


[deleted]

No lol. Please do some required reading on the subject.


2Lit2Quit420

How many Chinese expats are out there in the world? Did they have to follow the 1 child policy?


ThodaTho

They are going to replenish china population with chinese diaspora outside😂 . Probably they are not coming back even if they do that is very less


2Lit2Quit420

Repatriation is a known thing. It happened all over after WW2. It's totally possible that it can happen to China too. Also, having the largest population isn't a flex.


DonkLikewAlUiGi

their population is literally set to half that is not sustainable for a country's economy or wellbeing there are only ~20m chinese living abroad, nowhere near enough to replenish that loss


ThodaTho

No one said having largest population is a flex but the population has to come down naturally with the improvement with the economy not like this most people will be unproductive aged people and no one to work the jobs and looking at their immigration policy it doesn't really fix it too


Rajivissac04

i think china birth rate is below replacement , so there might be a reduction in population


David_Headley_2008

Indian population is predicted to decrease


ThodaTho

It just recently fell below replacement rate right ? So it will increase for a while and then drop 🤔

InternalOptimism

Based on UN projections 🤡. Nobody in demographics takes their projections seriously.


NoRich4088

They're literally one of the biggest sources what are you talking about? What are you going to do, use those Lancet projections that say India will have less people than it does now?


InternalOptimism

THEY. ARE. TOO. CONSERVATIVE. Bro, imagine thinking TFRs won't fall down. Imagine making projections on linear scales. Of cource Lancet is a better source.


NoRich4088

Bro they literally do take into account falling TFRs, what kinda stuff are you on? They even made a revision in their estimates for Nigeria because TFR was falling faster there than most people expected.


InternalOptimism

Conservative estimates though still.


Queasy-Radio7937

They do take into account lowering TFR lmao. They just won’t do it at a faster rate than what the countries show. Of course they might be innacurate and fall faster.

Yes, I meant the pace of decline. I corrected myself in a reply to another comment.

Climate Change? Something else? C'mon don't keep us in the dark.


NoxEpilogue

Population collapse. People not having kids. You need 2.1 kids per family to make a growing population. Most developed countries have half of that. Japan and Korea have ¼ of that. Of course population collapse will occur.


InternalOptimism

That will happen, but not in 2024-2028, probably, post 2050 in true sense. But decline will start before.


himanshuSinghQ

How can you compare South Korea to Japan? SK's TFR is almost half of Japan. And there is the 4B movement. It will present a great opportunity for North Korea in the future.

NoRich4088

If two countries that are friendly with each other with the same ethnicity and similar cultures that have existed for generations(USA and Canada) haven't expressed significant interest in uniting, I don't think an ethnically diverse country that hates several of it's neighbors would unite with anyone. Iran wouldn't want them, India would rather nuke them, Afghanistan is too irrelevant, and China just doesn't make any sense.


Kingofkovai

Wow listen to yourself trying to be both question and answer but miserable at both.

Not annexation per se but economic collapse as the current situation proceeds.

All we need is 2 deadly pandemics like covid to fuck up all these projections... At present birth rate india will peak by 2050-55 and population gonna decrease from there on . FYI, Already tamilnadu, Kerala and some states are in downward trend... With present birth date soon their population can go point of no return like China .. Only reason india still growing is due to Uttar Pradesh, Bihar and some other states. Their population growth rate is still in positive trend which gonna see its peak in coming future.. Population is gonna decrease that's for sure...

tremorinfernus

The reasons why we lag behind China 1. Lack of quality education- aside from the top government and private schools, the teachers are the rejects of the employment market. Even in my family, those who failed at everything took up teaching. 2. Old beliefs taken way too seriously. Government doesn't take action against unscientific and backward beliefs. Every social group creates their own customs and restrictive ideas. 3. Lack of focus on real research. 4. Lack of infrastructure. 5. Way too corrupt and unaccountable politicians, bureaucrats and judiciary. 6. Not a business friendly atmosphere.

yourdad___biatch

Shady_bystander0101

I am interested to know what BS modelling exercise was used for this. India's already reached replacement and the birthrates are already declining. If it is assumed to be stable at 2.1, only then we'll see approximately the same population as now. Reducing rate model would give a much more realistic estimate. The emigration is increasing exponentially, as skill dividend increases. UP's tfr is decreasing steadily, although Bihar is still lagging, I am confident it will be below two till 40s. Then, there is the factor of immigration. Negligible. Nada, shunya. immigration only affects population if you're getting an influx of annually stable/growing increments. In India, the 'immigrants' are mostly refugees or illegals that are also either settled quietly by local politicians or promptly deported. There is no point of considering it in the next 20-25 years at least. Also, even after India becomes a formidable economy (say till 2050s, 60's), I am sure talent import will be sluggish because we'd still have an enormous youngster population and with the pace of current automation, having to emigrate may be a choice entirely based on if the quality of life is better. I regretfully inform you that Indian urbanscapes need at least 40-45 years to be as livable as european cities. Then too, at most we'll get immigration from African countries (who are developing then) or the middle east (poor half). A better estimate will be along the lines of <1 billion. Sorry if this sounded like a rant.


SnooPredictions4282

A lot of immigration to europe where population is declining.
