INDIA IS A G20 DEVELOPING NATION

Developing countryis a term

generally used to describe a nation

with a low level of material well-being

(not to be confused with third worldcountries). Since no single definition

of the term developed countryis

recognized internationally, the levels

of development may vary widely

within so-called developing countries,

with some developing countries

having high average standards of

living.The G-20 s account for 60% ofthe world's population, 70% of its

farmers and 26% of worlds

agricultural exports [

POPULATION PROFILE HISTOGRAM

Birth Rate starts to fall.Death Rate continues to fall.Population rising.

Reasons:

Family planning available Lower Infant Mortality Rate

Increased mechanizationreduces need for workers

Increased standard of living

Changing status of women

COMPARISON HISTOGRAMS

The United States: Stage 4

Birth Rate and Death Rate both low.

Population steady.


10/17


Tajikistan :Stage 2

Birth Rate remains high. Death Rate

is falling. Population begins to rise

steadily.

Reasons

Death Rate is falling as a result of:

Improved health care (e.g. Smallpox

Vaccine)

Improved Hygiene (Water for drinking

boiled)

Improved sanitation

Improved food production and

storage

Improved transport for food

Decreased Infant Mortality Rates


11/17


Afghanistan :Stage 1

Birth Rate and Death rate are both high.

Population growth is slow andfluctuating.

Reasons

Birth Rate is high as a result of:

Lack of family planning

High Infant Mortality Rate: puttingbabies in the 'bank'

Need for workers in agriculture

Religious beliefs

Children as economic assets

Death Rate is high because of:

High levels of disease

Famine

Lack of clean water and sanitation

Lack of health care

War

Competition for food from predators

such as ratsLack of education

POPULATIONMOMENTUM

While India's population growth rate has been decliningover the years, the overall population will continue togrow as 51% of the population is in the reproductive agegroup (15-49). Millions more will join this cohort each

year. Today 26 million babies are born each year. Atcurrent levels, it may take several decades more tostabilise the population. Vast numbers of people cannotavail of services even when they are available, due toproblems of knowledge and access. The involvement of

educated people is vitally necessary to create a publicawakening, particularly from among those who areinfluential in their own spheres and possess thecapacity to make a difference.

DOUBLING TIME

Although India has created several impressive goals to reduce its population growth rates, the Indiaand the rest of the world has a long way to go to achieve meaningful population controls in this countrywith a growth rate of 1.6%, representing a doubling time of under 44 years.

GNI PER CAPITA(CURRENT US$)

GDP per capita is gross domestic

product divided by midyear

population. GDP is the sum of gross

value added by all resident producersin the economy plus any product

taxes and minus any subsidies not

included in the value of the products.

It is calculated without making

deductions for depreciation of

fabricated assets or for depletion and

degradation of natural resources.

Data are in current U.S. dollars.

PRESENT POPULATION & PROBLEMS

Population, total (1,155,347,678 200)

India is expected to have a population of more than 1.53 billion while China'spopulation is forecast to be at its peak of 1.46 billion in 2040. In 2000, the countryestablished a new National Population Policy to stem the growth of the countryspopulation. One of the primary goals of the policy was to reduce the total fertility rate

to 2.1 by 2010. One of the steps along the path toward the goal in 2010 was a totalfertility rate of 2.6 by 2002.

As the total fertility rate in India remains at the high number of 2.8, that goal was notachieved so it is highly unlikely that the total fertility rate will be 2.1 by 2010. Thus,Indias population will continue to grow at a rapid rate. The U.S. Census Bureau doespredict a near-replacement total fertility rate of 2.2 to be achieved in India in the year2050.

India's high population growth results in increasingly impoverished and sub-standardconditions for growing segments of the Indian population. As of 2007, India ranked126th on the United Nations' Human Development Index, which takes into accountsocial, health, and educational conditions in a country.

POPULATION ( BY 2035: 2.88 BILLION)

This is the population expectancies following

these possible two scenarios:

Scenario A, with a final TFR of 2.1 for higher

fertility states, results in a

population that does, in fact, reach two

billion, a milestone that would occur in 2066-

2071. By the end of the projection period, in

2101, four states, todays Bihar, Madhya

Pradesh, Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh would

account for almost half of the countrys

population. Scenario B, with a final TFR of

1.85, does not reach two billion. Under

Scenario B, growth peaks in 2081-2086,

after which it begins a period of population

decrease. S

DEMOGRAPHIC TRANSITION

Stage 3 - Late Expanding

Birth Rate starts to fall. Death Rate

continues to fall. Population rising.

Reasons:

Family planning available

Lower Infant Mortality Rate

Increased mechanization reduces

need for workers

Increased standard of living

Changing status of women
