Explanation:
By the year 2000, the world population stood at 6100 million. Geographical
distribution of the world population show that 2 per cent, amounting to 127 million
persons, lived in Central Asia, and another 22 percent amounting to 1353 million persons,
lived in South Asian countries.
The population size in almost all of the countries in the South and Central Asian
region shows a significant increase in the last few decades. Nevertheless, during 1980-
1990 and 1990-2000 decades, countries in South Asia experienced a significant decline in
the average annual rate of population growth (Table 1). Afghanistan is the only exception
showing an increase in the growth rate and its population. India, the most populous
country in the region, with a population of over thousand million, showed a decline in its
population growth rate amounting to 1.77 per cent per annum during the last decade.
During the same period, Sri Lanka experienced the lowest growth rate in the region with
a growth rate amounting to 1.05 per cent per annum.
