What to Focus On

  • India is the second most populous country after China.
  • Population growth depends on birth rate, death rate, and migration.
  • Before 1921, growth was slow due to high death rates.
  • Birth rate: number of live births per 1000 people.
  • Death rate: number of deaths per 1000 people.
  • High birth rate and low death rate lead to population growth.
  • Sex ratio = number of females per 1000 males.
  • It reflects gender equality in society.
  • India's sex ratio was 940 in 2011, up from 933 in 2001.

Common Mistakes to Avoid
