Population-As An Asset or Liability

Population as an Asset• India is the largest provider of skilled manpower in the world. It has the

youngest population in the world with a mean age of 24 years, in a globe that is ageing pretty fast.

• The large population, with its striking diversity that is not seen in the stark homogeneity of China, offers the world a variety of skills in terms of languages spoken, technology education and adaptability in disparate environments.

• With the millions of Indians now going to school and getting skilled, India is the larger provider of engineers (more than a million annually) and English professionals in the world.

• India is the largest market for automobiles , high value foods, mobile phones etc. Ahead of or just behind China.

Census projection report shows that proportion of working age population between 15 and 59 years is likely to increase from approximately 58% in 2001 to 64% by 2021.

The absolute no. There will be 65.5 million new entrants in relatively young age group of 20-35 years . such a trend will make India one of the youngest nation in the world .

According to HDR 2011 the HDI for India was 0.547 in 2011 with overall global ranking of 134 (out of 187 countries) compared to 119(out of 169 countries) as per HDR 2010.

India’s Labour Force According to the Indian Labour Report, 300 million youth

would enter the lobour force by 2025, and 25% of the world’s workers in the next three years would be Indian. India’s population is an asset as it would result in high income which would in turn result in higher saving , clear indicators of economic growth. Our growing population has resulted in an increase of different options in various fields guaranteeing more jobs, India has become a nation of various talents.

Larger population can be a big asset in lobour based manufacturing units which can make us a big exporter of hand made products

Population as a Liability Growing population has put pressure on limited

infrastructure which may crash under the burden of the weight of its population.

It is putting pressure on existing housing sector, our transport system.

Huge population has taken a fall on our environment which has been exploited to cater the needs of growing population.

It has negative impact on overall quality of life because it make people to work harder to achieve less.

The facts shows as the basic amenities of life are not sufficient 26% of slum population has access to safe drinking water, 25% of total population has drinking water on their premises . Inadequate sanitation causes diseases and diminish welfare.

The world bank estimated that India rank 2nd in world of the no. Of children suffering from malnourishment(2010)
