India's population growth
India has over 1.2 billion people and it is exponentially growing. Unlike China, India is the worlds biggest democracy and has made no attempt at curbing its growth with a one (1) child policy. So, what will happen to a much bigger India with projections of about 1.9 billion in twenty five years, and its resources are already depleted. India will either have to spread its resources more widely amongst its population or face increased polarity between the wealthy and the poor. In essence, India's classes will all grow in number, however they will likely remain as equal fractions. The biggest issue will be food and water, the quality and consumption per head will more likely reduce or be imported from surrounding countries to replenish the gap.
