Honestly this should be much bigger news. But for some reason it's getting swept under the rug. Keep in mind the birth rate will actually get worse as they become more developed.
Maybe they won't want this spreading because this contradicts a lot assumed about China. After all India followed so many things in the west, is a developing country and STILL has the same projected demographic problem. This shows thos problem is global and no one has a real solution especially for a big country that can't get free American finding like someone we know.
Easy to mock China but let's see these other countries come up with something better despite having less people to deal with. After all they are in the same boat.
Yep the reality is that as India modernizes their fertility will drop like a rock too. As much as they think they're special they're not. The pollution, heavy work culture, social media and religion clashing with modernity is already catching up to them and dragging their fertility rate down. Modi is just the last generation of Indian boomers on their way out the door.
The only high fertility countries I see outside of Africa are like Egypt, Iraq and someone else. All of them basically have food paid for by aid. Otherwise even the Middle East has low fertility - see the drop in Turkey and Iran. Even Saudi Arabia dropped to 2.0.
