Why is India's population growing so fast?

When it comes to the population of India, the first thing that comes to mind is the dense crowds on Indian trains. Of course, this may be just a joke, but art comes from life. Why can this land of India have a population of 65.438+39 billion? Moreover, when the population growth rate of most countries is declining, why is India's population still increasing rapidly? Next, let's take a look!

Content 1. Religious and cultural factors. Lack of contraceptive knowledge. Backward ideas. Progress at the medical level. Religious and cultural factors For our young people now, many people feel that it is a burden to have children and raise them. Many students around me, including me, have now made a decision not to have children in the future. But in India, due to cultural and religious factors, it is "compulsory" for men and women of school age to get married.

It is particularly difficult for Indians to take the initiative not to get married. Not only will it face pressure from all sides, but even Hinduism believes that marriage is sacred and inseparable, as important as life. Considering that the vast majority of Indians are Hindus, they are influenced by religious and cultural factors in their daily life and work. If you don't get married when you are old, there will be many restrictions on entering the society.

Generally speaking, we young people get married later now. Most of them will find a decent job after graduation, save some money before getting married, and some of them will even go on to study for postgraduate and doctoral degrees. However, India does not have so many rules and regulations. Many/kloc-boys and girls under 0/8 will get married. Therefore, child marriage is very common in India. If you get married early, you will have more children.

2. Lack of contraceptive knowledge According to statistics, more than 65 million Indians in China live in slums. Their quality of life is worrying, their education rate is generally not high, and they mainly live in remote areas and rural areas, resulting in little knowledge of contraception. People are even more ashamed to talk about and use contraception, and even discussing "sex" is taboo. At the same time, they also regard the child as a gift from God, and it is even more impossible to abort the child in their bellies. Therefore, India lacks effective contraceptive measures. If the couple didn't have "sexual abstinence", the fertility rate in India in the past few decades averaged six children per woman in her life.

Third, ideological concepts are backward. In India, there are generally many children from poor families. Why? In fact, this is the ideological reason. Their ideas are roughly the same as those of our older generation. Having one more child will give birth to one more hope in the future, so they try their best to have children, hoping that they can provide labor for their families when they grow up. Moreover, their preference for boys is also very serious. If the remaining children are always girls, they will choose to have children until they give birth to boys. This is shown in many Indian films. So there are more and more children from poor families, and of course they are getting poorer and poorer.

Fourth, the progress of medical level Due to the improvement of medical and health standards, the maternal mortality rate and infant mortality rate in India have been declining, which has also greatly reduced the overall mortality rate in India.

For example, 202 1, according to the data released by the authoritative department, China people died about100,000 this year, and newborn babies were about105,000, and the birth rate and death rate were just between 500,000. Therefore, there is such a situation: the infant birth rate in India remains high, the scientific level has improved, and the maternal mortality rate, infant mortality rate and elderly mortality rate have been declining. Results The birth rate in India is higher than the death rate, and the population is increasing.

The larger the population, the better? Actually, not necessarily. Now the world population has exceeded the 8 billion mark, and the growth rate of the world population will slow down in the future, but we don't know how many humans the earth can carry. Therefore, I think that people on the earth are just right.
