News18 Hindi · india

India's fertility rate has fallen below the replacement level of 2.1, with the national average now at 1.9. Prime Minister's Economic Advisory Council member Sanjeev Sanyal stated that population control spending is no longer necessary and India should learn from China's experience. China, after decades of population control, now struggles to increase its birth rate. Sanyal warned that India faces an aging population challenge, not overpopulation, and needs to reconsider its population policies.
