 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Overpopulation can be defined as a situation where the total number of the existing human population exceeds
the actual carrying capacity. If economic growth exceeds population growth, the standard of living goes up. On
the other hand, if population growth affects output growth per capita, then higher population growth rates will
contribute to higher or lower overall economic growth rates depending on the nature of its effects on per capita
Gross Domestic Product (GDP).

In this project I will calculate the correlation between Population growth and Gross Domestic Product (GDP).

Research Methodology technique used in the project is descriptive research and quantitative research method.

Rapid population growth repels the investment needed for higher future consumption. The growing population is
at risk of permanent environmental damage through urbanization in some rural areas. With an increase in the
labor force, unemployment and low employment increases, rapid increment of the population reduces savings
and investment.

Population Control Bill, 2019 proposes to introduce a two-child per couple policy and aims to encourage its
adoption through various benefits such as tax cuts, home loans, educational benefits and better employment
opportunities, free healthcare.

Declines in mortality, improved medical facilities, declining poverty rates, the progress of reproductive treatment,
lack of immigration and family planning may lead to overgrowth. As a result, overpopulation is negatively
impacting our economy because our economy is severely affected by the growth in population.

INTRODUCTION ABOUT THE TOPIC

1
 INTRODUCTION

POPULATION

The current population of India is 1,405,014,412 as of May 17, 2022. The population of India is projected at 139
crores as of July 1, 2021. The total population in India is projected at 138 crore people for the year 2020. India is
the second most populous country in the world behind China. It is now estimated that by 2027, India will most
likely overtake China to become the most populous country in the world with 1.47 billion people. India accounts
for a meagre 2.4 percent of the world surface area yet it supports and sustains a whopping 17.7 percent of the
world population. According to the Census of India 2011, the population of India stood at 1,210,854,977. he
increased population during the decade 2001-2011 is approximately equal to the population of Pakistan, the sixth
most populous country in the world. Population of India increased by 3.35 times since independence.

GDP

The GDP in India expanded 5.4% YoY in December,2021 following a growth of 8.5% in the previous quarter.
Real GDP growth YoY data in India is updated quarterly, available from June 2005 to Dec 2021, with an average
rate of 7.3%. The data reached an all-time high of 20.3% in June 2021 and a record low of -23.8% in June 2020.

IMPACT OF POPULATION EXPLOSION ON ECONOMY

Effect of Population Growth Rate on Economic development is one of the most debatable topics on earth. There
are a lot of theories which show that rise in population has negative effect on both economic growth and
development of a country. All these debates have started since Malthus proposed his theory in the book “Essay
on the Principle of Population”. He tried to find out the reason for diminishing returns in most of the countries
and he said that Population growth is the major reason. His theory goes in as follows: -

• Population increases by compounding.

• Food Production doesn’t get compounded.

• The new population will not get sufficient amount of food.

2
• Some adverse event (Starvation, crisis etc.) causes decline in the population. Then this leads to food production
and population coming back to the equilibrium.

There are generally three different types of views on how population effects the economic development of a
nation. One, opposing the positive impact on economic development. Two, supporting the negative effect of
economic development. Three, they believe that there is no relation between economic development and
population growth.

Malthusian Population Trap is the main example for the theories which support negative impact. There are a few
other theories which support the positive impact stating the importance of human capital on economic
development in a country. This also rises from the fact that any growth in the economic development needs human
capital as its main weapon and the rise in population can act as a provider of human capital. According to this
view population growth is the real strength and power of a country. They also say that with higher population, we
will have high labour force and this will help for creating labour diversity in the nation and in turn will help for
the rise in output of a nation.

But there is a possibility of other way around too. This population rise can be a disaster if we don’t use them
properly. This is the major problem with most of the developing countries face. Both the stands of views present
their arguments about population growth and economic development. Each of the views is supported both
theoretically and empirically.

Population growth hampers the economic development in many ways-

1. Overuse of Natural Resources-

Rapid population growth tends to overuse the country’s natural resources. This is particularly the case where
the majority of people are dependent on agriculture for their livelihood. With rapidly increasing population,
agricultural holding become smaller and unremunerative to cultivate. There is no possibility of increasing
farm production through the use of new land. Consequently, many households continue to live in poverty. In
fact, the population of India has increased from 102.7 crores in 2001 to 121.01 crores in 2011 which leads to
overuse of land, thereby endangering the welfare of future generations.

3
 2. Per Capita Income-

The effect of population growth on per capita income is unfavourable. The growth of population tends to
retard the per capita income in three ways-

• It increases the pressure of population on land.

• It leads to increase in costs of consumption goods because of the scarcity of the co-operant factor to increase
their supplies.

3. Agricultural Development-

In under-developed countries like India, people mostly live in rural areas. Agriculture is their main occupation.
So, with population growth the land man ratio is distributed. Pressure of population on land rises because land
supply is inelastic. It adds to disguised unemployment and reduces per capita productivity further. As the
number of landless worker increases, their wages fall. Thus, low per capita, productivity reduces the
propensity to save and invest. As a result, the use of improved technology and other improvements on land
are not possible. Capital formation in agriculture suffers and the economy is bogged down to the subsistence
level. The problem of feeding growing population becomes serious due to acute shortage of food products.
These have to be imported which raises balance of payments difficulties. Thus, the growth of population
retards agricultural development.

4. Capital Formation-

Growth of population retards capital formation. As population increases, per capita available income declines.
People are required to feed more children with the same income. It means more expenditure on consumption
and a further fall in already low savings and consequently in the level of investment. Further, a rapidly growing
population by losing incomes, savings and investment compels the people to use a low level of technology
which further retards capital formation.

4
5. Employment-

A rapidly increasing population plunges the economy into mass unemployment and under-employment. As
population increases, the proportion of workers to total population rises. But in the absence of complementary
resources, it is not possible to expand jobs. The result is that with the rise in labour force, unemployment and
under-employment increases. A rapidly increasing population reduces income, savings and investment. Thus,
capital formation is retarded and job opportunities are reduced, thereby increasing unemployment. Moreover,
as the labour force increases relation to land, capital and other resources, complementary factors available per
workers decline. As a result, unemployment increases. India has a backlog of unemployment which keeps on
growing with a rapidly increasing population. This tends to increase the level of unemployment manifold as
compared with actual increase in labour force.

6. Environment-

Rapid population growth leads to environmental damage. Scarcity of land due to rapidly increasing population
pushes large number of people to ecologically sensitive areas such as hillsides and tropical forests. It leads to
over grazing and cutting of forests for cultivation leading to severe environmental damage. Moreover, the
pressure of rapid growth of population forces people to obtain more food for themselves and their livestock.
As a result, they over-cultivate the semi-arid areas. This leads to desertification over the long run when land
stops yielding anything. Besides, rapid population growth leads to migration of large numbers to urban areas
with industrialization. This results in severe air, water and noise pollution in cities and town.

7. Social Infrastructure-

Rapidly growing population necessitates large investments in social infrastructure and diverts resources from
directly productive assets. Due to scarcity of resources, it is not possible to provide educational, health,
medical, transport and housing facilities to the entire population. There is over-crowding everywhere. As a
result, the quality of these services goes down. To provide these social infrastructures requires huge
investment.

5
RATIONALE OF STUDY

Population explosion is impacting the economy as we have limited resources. Just to meet the demand of the
rapidly growing population, more food and other consumer goods are needed so that demand can be fulfilled. As
the population increases, the ratio of workers to the total population increases with an increase in the labour force,
unemployment increases. Rapid increment of the population reduces savings and investment.

LITERATURE/ THEORETICAL REVIEW

7
 REVIEW OF LITERATURE

(Mason, 2022) New estimates of economic flows by age combined with population projections show that in the
coming decades global GDP growth could be slower by about 1 percentage point per year, declining more sharply
than population growth. Living standards of working-age adults may be squeezed by high spending on children
and seniors. Changing economic life cycles will amplify the economic effects of population aging in many higher
income economies; and (6) population aging will likely push public debt, private assets, and perhaps productivity
higher. Population change will have profound implications for national, regional, and global economies.

(Mansour, 2022) This article is mainly devoted to the study of socioeconomic opportunities and problems that
may arise from the growth of the world’s population. The article identifies the reasons for the increase in world
population and analyses the factors influencing on the process. The article examines the impact of changes on the
world’s demographics on socioeconomic development. As a result, the characteristics of possible problems were
investigated and evaluated. The study analyses the issues of demographic change in the world population, the
current situation, and opportunities of the world economy in accordance with population statistics and its growth
rate. The study discusses, analyses, and evaluates the problems that can be caused by the growth of the world’s
population.

(Bahadur, 2019) The population of India represents 17.99% of the world´s total population which arguably
means that one person in every 6 people on the earth is a resident of India. India is the second most populated
country in the world. India is projected to be the world’s most populous country by 2024. Its population growth
rate is 1.13%, ranking 112th in the world in 2017. It is expected that in 2020 average age of an Indian will be 29
years. Population is the means as well as ends of economic development. They are an asset if in adequate strength
and prove to be a liability if excess in strength. Population has crossed the optimum limit in India and has become
a liability. So, problem of population explosion in India has proved to be a big hindrance in the success of
economic planning and development. The researcher found that there exists a significant correlation between the
population and GDP of India. The researcher has taken the population of each state and their corresponding SGDP
to find whether population is related to GDP or not.

8
(Peter, 2019) This study examines the impact of population growth on the economic growth using panel data
approach from 1980 -2015. The impact of population growth on economic growth is still largely controversial at
national and regional levels. The study used annual secondary data of fifty-three countries sourced from the
World Development Indicators database. Data were collected for economic growth, proxied by GDP, population
growth, fertility rate, crude death rate and inflation rate. The paper concludes and recommends that population
growth impacts positively on economic growth while fertility has a negative impact on economic growth.

(Peterson, 2017) This article draws on historical data to chart the links between population growth, growth in per
capita output, and overall economic growth over the past 200 years. Low population growth in high-income
countries is likely to create social and economic problems while high population growth in low-income countries
may slow their development. International migration could help to adjust these imbalances but is opposed by
many. Drawing on economic analyses of inequality, it appears that lower population growth and limited migration
may contribute to increased national and global economic inequality.

(Bhanu Phani, 2016)Analysed the impact of population growth on economic development of India by using
regression technique. They highlighted the effects of rapid increase in population on the economic growth and
development of India. He studied the interaction of population growth and economic development. They
concluded that population growth had a positive impact on the economic development in India and for every unit
increase in population, the GDP grows by 3.383108 units which shows that population growth has a positive
impact on the economic development of India.

(Manjul Mayank Pandey, 2015) Analysed the short term and long-term changes due to population growth. He
asserted the four main components of population change. He stressed on optimum utilization of working ages
population as per their age structure for skilled development and economic growth of India.

(Agrawal, 2014) Stressed on the role of population in generating labour force. Labour is treated as most active
factor of production. There are many resources which help in production. So other resources are also required in
sufficient quantity to produce. He highlighted the effect of population on the economic development of a nation.
They found that the fast-increasing population makes the task of employing the labour force in productive
9
activities and it was also examined that it increases the demand for resources. They concluded that there is a need
to establish correlation between the population growth and economic development by only ensuring the supply
of resources proportionate to it.

(Gideon Kiguru, 2013) Presented three different theories related to the relationship between population growth
and economic growth. The study is based on the Kenya country. The study is based on the Vector Auto Regression
estimation technique and used annual time series data. The period of study is the 1963 to 2009. The findings and
results showed that existence of a long-run relationship between population and economic growth in Kenya and
provide strong support for the hypothesis that population is driving economic growth in the country and it also
supports to the population-driven economic growth. The study concludes that in Kenya population growth
increases economic growth and consequently economic development.

(Med, 2013) The world's population is increasing unsustainably because the topic is seen as too sensitive. There
is an urgent need to tackle the issue. The burden of the lowered standard of living that results from population
growth and from the decline of resources, falls most heavily on the poor. Unemployment has a higher five-year
mortality than many cancers. Countries see growth in gross domestic product (GDP) as a marker of success, yet
this encourages consumption of scarce resources and GDP includes burgeoning healthcare industries.

(Schneider, 2011)International development has been feared to impose considerable challenges to global food
production because more food has to be produced with fewer agricultural resources. This paper uses a global,
partial equilibrium, and bottom-up model of land use to assess the interdependencies between land, water, and
food in the context of different global development scenarios.

(Schultz, 2010) Professor Schultz used time series data of Sweden and produced the result that 25% decline in
fertility is explained by 50% decrease in infant mortality rate.

(Afzal, 2009) There is divergence of opinion regarding the consequences of population growth for economic
development. Some view rapid population growth as a real problem while others assert that it is not a matter of

10
grave concern. Cross-national evidence on the relationship between population growth and economic growth is
inconsistent because the underlying parameters and assumptions vary across countries.

(Bloom, 2008) Macroeconomic evidence for an effect on growth is mixed, with evidence of a large effect in some
studies. However, there is a possibility that gains from health may be outweighed by the effect of increased
survival on population growth, until a fertility transition occurs. The low cost of some health interventions that
have large-scale effects on population health makes health investments a promising policy tool for growth in
developing countries.

(Stephan Klasen, 2007) The paper examines the link between population and per capita economic growth, and
poverty, using the interesting case study of Uganda. Although Uganda has recently experienced excellent
economic growth and poverty reduction, it currently has one of the highest population growth rates in the world
which, due to the inherent demographic momentum, will persist for some time to come. By combining both a
macro and micro econometric approach, using panel data, we are able to consider the impact of population growth
on per capita economic growth and poverty.

(Peng, 2002)He examined the relationship between rise in the productivity of population growth and the labor
division. He found that the change is productivity is not explained by the growth of population. But he found that
division in labour has increased the productivity. He also explained that the increase in population of a nation
helps the improvement in division of labour in a country.

(Kothare, 1999) Investigated the relationships between population growth and economic development of the
Indian economy. of 1988 to 1998. He concluded that India is one of the world’s fastest growing economies,
primarily due to the rise in population growth creating a positive effect on its long run economic growth. India is
now ranked one of the top producers in agriculture and is a top nation in terms of GDP in a developing country.
In many cases, economists are correct in saying that population growth has a positive effect on economic growth
of a nation. In reality, economists might say, "If it weren’t for its high populations India would still be a suffering
developing nation.

11
(Aguirre, 1999) There are many debates going on the impact of huge population growth of a nation. The approach
for almost all of them is different and their motivation is different too. A working knowledge of the parties and
their underlying philosophies will allow one to shift through the diverse rhetoric and hold them up to the light of
scientific data.

(Kothare R. , 1999) Overpopulation is a growing problem throughout the world at this stage in time. Currently,
the world population has crossed over the six billion mark and is on an exponential path upwards. Economists are
torn between two theories; one that states population increase and growth help a nation’s economy by stimulating
economic growth and development and another theory that states that population increase is detrimental to a
nation’s economy due to a variety of problems caused by the growth.

(Easterlin, 1967) Some theoretical analyses argue that high population growth creates pressures on limited natural
resources, reduces private and public capital formation, and diverts additions to capital resources to maintaining rather
than increasing the stock of capital per worker. Others point to positive effects such as economies of scale and
specialization, the possible spur to favourable motivation caused by increased dependency, and the more favourable
attitudes, capacities, and motivations of younger populations compared with older ones.

FINDINGS AND OBSERVATIONS

21
 FINDINGS

From the data found through different sources we can find out the rapid increase in the Population growth
each year, the increment in the population from 2015 to 2021 shows the population explosion in the country.

We can see the rise in the pace of GDP growth since 2012 till 2020 and then the sudden fall in the year of
2021 and again the rise in 2022.

We can see a minor decline in the year of 2021 even in the graph of correlation which shows the relationship
between the population growth and GDP growth.

However, as population increases, per capita available income declines. People are required to feed more
children with the same income. It means more expenditure on consumption and a further fall in already low
savings and consequently in the level of investment.
The rapidly growing population transforms the economy into mass unemployment and low employment. As
the population increases, the ratio of workers to the total population increases. The result is that with an
increase in the labor force, unemployment and low employment increases.

As a result, there’s a negative impact of the population explosion in the growth of an economy.

CONCLUSION

23
 CONCLUSION

Population is very important for the development of a nation. It is the means as well as ends of economic
development. Population is an important asset for the nation but becomes liability if it is uncontrolled. Population
has crossed the optimum limit in India and has become a liability. So, problem of population explosion in India
has proved to be a big hindrance in the success of economic planning and development. From last two decades
population has increased from 983 million in 1998 to 1283.60 million in 2017 that is 30.58% increase. Although
overpopulation has not affected the GDP and infect GDP of India has grown very fast from last two decades.
India is now 3rd largest economy with GDP (PPP) $10.40 trillion but due to population explosion still it is ranked
116th country in terms of per capital income and 130th position in terms of HDI. Population explosion is adversely
affecting the standard of living. Overpopulation creates the problems like unemployment, shortage of food, low
per capita income, problem of capital formation, high pressure, social problems, economic insecurity, social
insecurity, increases pressure on land and environment degradation. The economic planning and development of
India, is very much influenced by the changes in population. India with its increasing human resources and
abundant natural resources is still considered a developing country. India is still not in a position to use its natural
resources adequately for the welfare of the growing population. Poverty prevails to great extent in India due to
poor clothing, inadequate housing, poor medical care and malnutrition. The situation in India today is marked in
terms of lack of electricity in many villages, insufficient food for a large part of its population and very little
health care and education facilities.
