                       INDIA'S POPULATION TO SURPASS CHINA BY 2025


   India will overtake China in terms of population by 2025, an analysis of the provisional census,2011 data suggests: With more than 1.2 billion people,India has about 17.5 percent ( every sixth person in the world is an Indian) of humanity. China is the only country which a larger population, with 144 million more people. The United Nations has estimated that the Indian population grew at an annual rate of 1.43 percent during 2005-10.  In comparison, China registered a much lower annual growth rate of 0.7 percent during the corresponding period.
   In fact, the population growth is now almost on a par with that of the developed nations. Demographers expect India's population to surpass that of China. At that time India is expected to have a population of more than 1.4 billion, which will begin to drop in subsequent years.
  Analyzing the provisional census,2011 data, the Management Institute of Population and Development has quoted the population Reference Bureau's 2010 estimates, which says that India has 1189 million people whereas China has 1,338 million. Nearly 27 million children are born every year in India and only 16 million in China.
   In the last 20 years,  India's population has increased by more than 350 million,while China's has increased only by 210 million With China successfully managing the population issue,it has been able to improve the rate of economic growth.
