India Soon To Be Most Populous Country

India will surpass China in 2023 to be the world's most populous country, four years earlier than the United Nations had previously estimated.
According to the UN, the global population will reach 8 billion people till November and then grow to 8.5 million by 2030. According to World Population Prospects 2022, more than half of the projected increase between now and 2050 will be in eight countries: Congo (Ethiopia, Nigeria, Pakistan and the Philippines), Tanzania (Tanzania), Congo (Congo), Egypt, Ethiopia and Nigeria), and the Philippines (Nigeria, Pakistan, Pakistan, and Nigeria). 

According to the report, China will experience an absolute drop in its population by next year. An earlier Chinese official had predicted that China's population would peak in 2022, as the country's 1.41 billion population grew at the slowest rate since the 1950s. According to government data, A previous report had projected that India would surpass China by 2027.
Central and southern Asia may become the most populous region in the world by 2037 due to lower mortality rates and demographic shifts. The number of people living in sub-Saharan Africa could almost double by the end of 2040s, to reach 2 billion. Data show that the population growth rates in Europe, North America, and Asia were nearly zero in 2020-2021.
Global population growth is projected to be 9.7 billion by 2050 and 10.4 trillion in 2100. This figure is lower than the UN's 2019 estimate at 11 billion. According to the report, which cites data provided by the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation, India's total fertility rate could fall to 1.29 births per women by 2100, instead of 1.69 births as previously estimated by the UN.
The report stated that women and men will be equal by 2050, with a global average of 49.7% for women and 50.3%50.3% for men. It is said that sustained high fertility and rapid population growth are obstacles to sustainable development.
