- loeg 2y agoWhat? India has a TFR of 2.01. Population growth is over.
- triceratops 2y agoPopulation growth isn't quite over because people also live longer than before. But yeah the days of rapid growth are quite gone.
- Cthulhu_ 2y ago> what are the next steps? I'd say huge investments in improving things like infrastructure (roads, water, sewage, electricity), quality of housing, etc. China has a lot of experience in this regard with huge, admittedly failed projects of building entire cities from scratch (failed because nobody actually lives there).
