We all worry about population explosion, but we don't worry about it at the right time.” - Arthur Hoppe.
Whenever we hear the words ‘population’ or ‘population growth’, our mind always throws back replies like ‘it’s a problem’, ‘population explosion’ or ‘it’s [population] huge’. This thought of perceiving population as negative has been systematically drilled into us since childhood.
However, a neutral perspective is needed to analyze this phenomenon of population growth. India has second largest population of the world and surprisingly enough it’s banking on this population for achieving its ambitions. And to a greater surprise, even the entire world is acknowledging this humongous population of India. Population growth is seen as the major cause of under-development nowadays. However, India is looking at its population as the one which will provide it with the so called ‘Demographic Dividend’.
