The last census was conducted in the country in 2011, in 2021 the census could not be conducted due to the Corona epidemic. Now the question is, if countries like pakistan and afghanistan had not separated from india, what would have been the population of the country? Let's know...
What is the population of India?
The last census in india was conducted in 2011. If we look at the census data of 2011, the population of india was around 121 crores. In this, 62.3 crores were male population and 58.6 crores were female population. In comparison to 2001, a jump of 17.64 percent was seen in the population of the country in 2011. More than 15 years have passed since the census was conducted in the country. If we talk about the present time, the population of the country has reached about 140 crores. In terms of population, india is on the verge of defeating china as well.
What would be the population in undivided India?
If we talk about the current population of india, the population of the country has crossed the figure of 140 crores. In such a situation, if the population of the major countries of undivided india is added, then there will be a huge jump in the population of India. In fact, the population of the neighboring country pakistan, which separated after the partition of the country, is more than 24.75 crores. This figure is of 2023. Apart from this, the population of afghanistan is 4.15 crores. At the same time, the population of bangladesh is around 17 crores. If these three countries are added together, the total population will reach around 200 crores.
