India will move in the middle of this year to China as the world’s most populous country, according to UN forecasts released this Wednesday.

By mid-year, India’s population will reach 1,428.6 million, up from 1,425.7 million. Chinaaccording to the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) report on the state of world population.

China’s population declined last year for the first time in more than six decades, according to official figures released a few months ago.

Many attribute China’s decline to the rise in the cost of living, as well as the increase in the number of women in the labor market and in higher education.

Beijing in 2016 it lifted its strict “one child per family” policy introduced in the 1980s amid fears of overpopulation, and in 2021 allowed couples to have three children.

China sees continued demographic decline amid declining birth rates and an aging workforce.

Several regions of the country have announced plans to boost the birth rate, but official efforts have so far been unable to reverse the demographic decline.

India It does not have the latest data on the number of inhabitants, because the population census has not been conducted since 2011.

The census, which India conducts every decade, was scheduled for 2021 but has been delayed due to the coronavirus pandemic.

At present, facing logistical hurdles and political resistance, it is unlikely that he will conduct a census anytime soon.

Critics accuse the government of deliberately postponing the census to cover up controversial information such as unemployment ahead of the 2024 national elections.
