A Think School economic case study on India's falling fertility rate and the demographic dividend.

The caption text covers the whole 15 minute video. All statistics (fertility rates, per capita income at ageing, informal workforce share, manufacturing share), the comparisons with Japan, South Korea and China, and his political criticism and policy recommendations are the presenter's statements and opinions, not independently checked.
