据印度政府最新发布的统计数据显示，到2026年，印度总人口将达到14.71亿，从而取代中国成为世界上人口最多的国家。到2050年，印度的人口将超过16亿，这将严重威胁国家的经济发展。该统计报告的作者表示，印度需要重新考虑阻止人口增长的政策，以防止人口增长使贫困问题加剧。该作者同时指出，印度5亿的贫困人口得不到稳定的经济来源，导致印度有四分之一的女孩在18岁前便怀孕生子，这也是人口增长加快的原因之一。对此，印度国内评论人士则表示，人口增长将会为印度的经济发展带来客观的人口红利，从而促进经济更快发展。他们表示，目前印度每年都能培养出16万工程师和100多万名技工，随着人口的增长，这些专业技术人员的数量也会随之上升，而人们受教育机会不断增加必然会减慢人口增长的速度。[文章版权禁止转载:考试与评价 http://www.trgroup.com.cn/te/ S]RQP,O EJ2Jm5cFroG]
