In front of many countries of the world, their large population (Population) is a challenge. These countries keep making all efforts to control their population. On the other hand, there are some countries which are troubled due to their low population. According to the seventh National Population Census recently released on Tuesday by the Chinese government, the population of all 31 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities of China was 1.41178 billion.
However, it is estimated that China’s population will start decreasing from next year. There are many countries where there is a change in the population or it is expected to change in the coming time. In the Lancet report last year, it was also revealed that there is a change in the population of some countries of the world. Let us see what those countries are-
Japan
The population of Japan was 128 million according to the 2017 census. The report had estimated that by the end of this century the number of Japan will be halved, that is, about five crore 30 lakhs. Japan has the largest population of people over 100 years of age. The number of people working and working here is steadily decreasing. It was said in the government estimate that by 2040, the number of elderly people will be more than 35 percent.
Italy
According to the 2017 census, Italy had a population of 60 million. The Lancet report said that by the end of the century, Italy’s population will have reduced to 28 million. The number of elderly people here is quite high. If we look at the World Bank 2019 data, Italy has a population of 23 percent of people over 65 years of age. Italy has been worried and trying for these claims for a long time. In 2015 Italy has also started a plan to increase fertility rate.
Brazil
The fertility rate of the Latin American country Brazil is also steadily decreasing. Brazil’s fertility rate was 6.3 in 1960, which has now reached 1.7. The population of Brazil in 2017 was 21 crores. The report claimed that by the year 2100, the population of this country will be reduced to just 16 crore.
India
According to the 2011 census, India’s population was one billion 300 million. It is estimated that by the year 2100, India will become the most populous country in the world. However, the report says that by the end of the century, India’s population will be 10 billion. Countries like Italy which are insisting on increasing the fertility rate while in India programs like family planning remain the priority of the government.
Nigeria
On the one hand, while the population of other countries is estimated to be low, the population of Nigeria is being claimed to increase. The report said that by the end of the century, the population of Nigeria will reach 80 crores and it will become the second most populous country in the world. According to the report, in such a situation, the number of youth in Nigeria will increase and this will greatly benefit the GDP.
