India’s population will pass China’s soon, but when exactly?

Associated Press  

India should surpass China’s population midway through this year, according to the latest projection from the United Nations. The last update to the data used for these calculations for both India and China was July 2022, said Sara Hertog, a U.N. population affairs officer in New York. The demographers then use a statistical technique to infer when India’s population has surpassed that of China, according to Stuart Gietel-Basten, a professor at Khalifa University of Science and Technology in Abu Dhabi. Andrea Wojnar, the United Nations Population Fund’s representative for India, said the agency is confident in the survey’s numbers “because it uses a very robust methodology.” WHY IS INDIA MOVING AHEAD?
