India can be considered to be a country with Demographic Dividend due to ________.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. high population between 15- 64 years

  • India is often considered to have a demographic dividend due to its large population within the working-age group, typically defined as between 15 and 64 years old.
  • This demographic structure implies that a significant portion of the population is of working age, which can potentially lead to increased economic productivity and growth if properly harnessed through education, skill development, and employment opportunities.
