India’s population has been steadily increasing from 361 million in 1951 to 1028 million in 2001. This increase is due to
1) High birth rates The substantial improvement is the result of many factors including improvement in public health, prevention of infectious diseases and application of modern medical practices in diagnosis and treatment of ailments
2) Low death rates - Death rates have declined from 25 per 1000 population in 1951 to 8.1 per 1000 in 2001 and life expectancy at birth has increased from 36.7 years in 1951 to 64.6 years in 2001
3) Increase in migration level - Migration is an important determinant of population change. It changes not only the population size but also the population composition of urban and rural population in terms of age and sex composition.
