الهند تتفوق على الصين في عدد السكان

By Jordi Bou

April 20, 2023 - ستصبح الهند أكبر دولة في العالم من حيث عدد السكان إذ من المتوقع أن يزيد عدد سكانها مقارنة بعدد سكان الصين بنحو 3 ملايين نسمة بحلول منتصف هذا العام، مما يمثل تحولاً تاريخياً للجارتين الآسيويتين.

India’s population surpassed 1,429 billion, slightly higher than China’s 1.426 billion people, according to mid-2023 estimates by the UN’s World Population dashboard.

Population experts using previous data from the UN have projected India’s population would surpass China's this month, but the global body's latest report did not specify a date.

Although both nations will account for more than a third of the estimated global population of 8.045 billion, population growth in both has been slowing, albeit much faster in China than India.
