Explanation
The National Population Policy (NPP) 2000 sets out immediate, medium‑term and long‑term objectives for India’s demographic goals. Its medium‑term aim was to bring the Total Fertility Rate to replacement level by 2010, while its explicitly stated long‑term objective is to achieve a stable (stabilised) population by the year 2045. This target — framed to align population size with sustainable economic growth, social development and environmental protection — is documented in the official NPP text and reiterated in subsequent government statements summarising NPP 2000’s goals [2].
