This line chart illustrates the rate of change in the population between the years 2000 and 2050. It includes population data, per billion, for India and China.
Specifically, in the year 2000, China had a denser population than India. Furthermore, India also had a noticeable count. From the year 2000 to 2030, both countries experienced dynamic fluctuations, as the schematic shows, and the population in India rose noticeably higher compared to China. In the past three decades, China has had a moderate decline in population; in the year 2030, the populations were the same, above 1.4 billion. From the beginning, India has shown a straight inclination in the count of citizens. These two countries have been converging from the year 2000 to 2030; after that year, the graph lines started diverging.
By the year 2050, India will have hit 1.6 billion in population, while China has shown a slight downfall to below 1.4 billion.
