Shafaqna English- India’s total fertility rate has declined to 1.9 births per woman, with consequences for its workforce, elders and economy.
For decades, India has seen rapid population growth. According to government statistics, including the Sample Registration System (SRS) Statistical Report — the country’s largest demographic survey — India has had a falling fertility rate for some years, but the reproduction rate remained high enough to keep the population growing.
