India needs to get its population under control.

Perhaps they need a policy like China’s.

Fewer people mean more resources for them all.

But I don’t see it happening. It will probably take some horrible disaster to get their population under control.

They are setting themselves up for a nasty plague that could wipe out a huge chunk of their population. That is one way nature deals with overpopulation. Anytime you get that many people crowed together like that, diseases get to be a problem.

World population pie chart. Asia has the rest of the world outnumbered. Asia has just over half of the world’s population with China and India being the worst offenders. But at least China is trying to do something about theirs.
