Could one explanation be that democratic countries have less children, than autocratic countries?

India is like 18% of the world population, so it becoming an autocracy explains most of the population swing.

Modi is really trying his best by constructing a god-cult around his persona, building up paramilitary forces and stoking hindunationalistic pogroms. The classic autocracy/fascism setup if you will.

"building up paramilitary forces and stroking Hindu nationalist pogroms" where are your sources, that's just straight up bs. modi got less seats in 2024 election than he did previously, and bjp didn't even get majority, how is that a autocratic government
