India's population surpasses Americas and EU combined
India's population has now reached a staggering 1.4 billion, making it one of the most populous nations on the planet and surpassing the combined populations of the Americas and the European Union.
The Americas hold 1.02 billion people, while the European Union accounts for 449.2 million, placing India's population far ahead of these two major regions.
This immense demographic scale presents both opportunities and challenges for economic growth, urban development, and resource management.
On the one hand, the country's immense population could drive economic growth and expand markets, while also enhancing its geopolitical influence. On the other hand, it creates substantial pressure on urban infrastructure, resource management, and employment.
On a wider scale, India's population is equivalent to 17.78% of the total world population.
As the world’s second-most populous country, India's growing role in global markets and geopolitics is becoming increasingly evident.
