INDIA REACHING 1 BILLION ON AUGUST 15: NO CELEBRATION PLANNED

I reached this article accidently but definitely speaks the truth that we all indians are hiding from. Population is happening to be biggest truth in India now. Every year, India adds a 18 million means an Australia to world's population.

By 2050, U.N. demographers project that it will have added another 530 million people for a total of more than 1.5 billion. If India continues on the demographic path as projected, it will overtake China by 2045, becoming the world's most populous country. Well before hitting the one billion mark, the demands of India's population were outrunning its natural resource base. This can be seen in its shrinking forests, deteriorating rangelands, and falling water tables. For Americans to understand the pressure of population on resources in India, it would be necessary to squeeze the entire U.S. population east of the Mississippi River and then multiply it by four.
