Demographic Change, Age Structure
Transition and Ageing in India:
Issues and Challenges
K S James
K M Sathyanarayana |
India, accounting
for nearly 18
percent of the world
population has been
experiencing slow but
steady demographic
transition since the second half of
the last century. In recent years,
however, the fertility transition in
India has accelerated resulting in
rapid changes in the age structure
of the population. T his change
creates unique opportunities along
with significant challenges both
for the economy and society. The
age structure change is expected
to create demographic dividend
initially and ageing of population
later. With wide variation in the
demographic transition across states
in the country, the demographic
dividend and ageing is also likely
to vary significantly across states
in India.
The provisional population
result from 2011 census provides
some useful information on the pace
of demographic change taking place in the country. Although provisional
data do not provide age composition
of the population, the available
population totals and the proportion
of child population in the age group
0-6 years help us to understand the
emerging demographic change and
the plausible age structure transition
in the country. What follows is an
analysis of the available data from
the 2011 census to understand the
emerging age structure changes in
India. |
