Explanation:
The term population explosion refers to the phenomenon of a rapid increase in population which tends to outstrip the growth of national income and retards the progress in per capita income.
It is indicative of a situation where the economy is not capable of coping with the needs to save and invest enough for rapid accumulation necessary for the achievement of a take off stage. The economy, therefore, remains in the grip up of a vicious circle of poverty.
The consumption and nutrition standards of the population are low it enjoys a poor health and low productivity. The phenomenon of population explosion is associated with a high birth rate which for outstrips the death rate. In a stagnant economy both birth rate and death rate are high and the next increase in population is zero or very low during the early stage of economic growth.
In the decade of 1911-21 many causes lead to reduction off population. But after that there is constant growth, in both absolute and relative terms. Hence, the year 1921 is called the year of Great Divide. The second stage of transition began from this dividing milestone.
From the table it is evident that Indian population in 1991 registered a rise, absolute and relatively both. In absolute term, the population increased to 84.3 crores and in relative terms, the growth rate was 23.0% in 1991. Growth rate during the decade 1971-81 according to census of 1981 was 24.66%. This shows that India is still passing through the second stage of demographic transition.
