Abstract

All the nooks and crannies of India indicate the clear picture of overpopulation. India is the second most populated country after China and according to the various studies it will surpass China by 2025.Overpopulation is a problem which needs to be resolved in order to save environment and its resources. The consequences of population growth leads to  rapid decrease in land areas, contamination of air, water, extinction of plant and animal species because of deforestation and loss of eco-systems etc. Many people are already aware of this situation but there is a need to spread the awareness about the consequences of overpopulation and literacy could be a better solution of this problem and as we know that the relationship between population and literacy in all over the world is contentious so this research paper is an effort to investigate the  growth  and  discrepancy  in literacy and population rates of different states in India in order to take suitable preventive measures to make India a developed country fulfilling all needs.
