Hello friend, here is your answer,

Population explosion in India.


Population explosion is the most serious problem facing our country today. With 16 per cent of the world’s population, India is toady the second largest populations’ country in the world. As on March 1.1991, when the last census was conducted, the country’s population stood at 846.30 million, with 439.23 males and 407.07 females. The country’s population is currently estimated at about 950 millions. The population growth has been extremely rapid in the last 50 years. The phenomenal growth is now more appropriately termed as “population explosion”.

The phenomenal growth rate in population is largely because of the industrial and technological revolutions that had taken place in the recent times. The new technologies have not only brought down the death rate because of the vastly improved Medicare resulting in increased life expectancies, but had also facilitated increased food production to take care of food needs of the increasing population.The government should also intensify its efforts to educate the people on the adverse effects of population explosion. The population explosion can be effectively checked only when the people are inclined towards smaller families. With increasing literacy rate and improved socio-economic status, the people can be educated to adopt a favorable attitude towards smaller families. When this happens, the population explosion can be checked.

Hope my answer is useful to you.!!

Population explosion refers a phenomenon which occured in the late 20th century, around 1970s and 1980s. During this time, population of the world rose rapidly. Population growth was very high, due to which population of the world rose unexpectedly due to improvements in medical technology and food production. Improvements in medical technology reduced the number of still births, immature deaths and mortality rate. Food production improvement due to use of HYV seeds and other modern technologies gave food to the growing population. Population is a potential asset. Countries and their governments were not prepared for this explosion, so asset became a liablity. World requires people for labour, but they came all at once. This boom is usually seen on its negative side because it drastically increased energy demands and demand for housing, food, sanitation, potable water, etc. Resources began to get depleted rapidly and created new problems such as global warming, climate change, decrease in stability of a country like India, decreasing land area for new population, unemployment, etc.
