China’s National Bureau of Statistics (UIB) made a remarkable statement. In the statement, it was stated that the population of China decreased for the first time in a long time. While the population of the country was recorded as 1 billion 411 million 800 thousand by the end of 2022, the data for 2021 revealed that the population of China was 1 billion 412 million 600.

This statistic is important. Because China last experienced a population loss between 1960 and 1961, and 30 million people died due to drought and famine. The population decrease of 800,000 in 2022, of course, is not as much as it was in the 1960s.

India’s population may surpass China this year!

India, the second most populous country in the world, will overtake China this year, according to estimates, to become the world’s most populous country. Also, India will hold this title for years to come. It is stated that the population loss in China will increase exponentially in the coming years. It should be noted that the current population of India is at the level of 1.4 billion.

Let’s not go without mentioning the following: The fertility rate in China has dropped to 6.77 per thousand. In China, where 9.56 million babies were born, the number of births decreased by 9.8 percent compared to the previous year. These figures were recorded as the lowest levels since 1949. Experts who predict that this will continue, say that the population of China will decrease to 1 billion 317 million in 2050 and 766 million in 2100.

The United Nations made statements confirming the estimates from China.

The United Nations (UN) made a statement in the past months and said that India will overtake China in 2023 to become the most populous country in the world. The statement coming today reveals the possibility that the prediction of the United Nations may come true.
