India's Fertility Rate Declines, Economic Challenges Emerge

India's Fertility Rate Declines, Economic Challenges Emerge

India's birth rate is dropping, meaning fewer babies are being born.

This is a good thing for population control.

However, if the population shrinks before India gets wealthier, it could face problems like a large elderly population and fewer workers.

India's window of opportunity for economic development is closing.

The focus should shift towards improving education and skills to create a better workforce.
