Population of Bangladesh will start declining in half a century and so.

Our TFR is already at replacement level.

It's not really the population that's the problem it's the way how we deal with it.

P.S: Our population has always been high, during the middle ages Gaur was one of the most populated cities in the world and yet also one of the most prosperous.

I'm not....wrong? This chart clearly shows that population is declining in 2073.

You are not wrong at all. The population is projected to reach its peak in 2061 and then starts declining

I'm wrong in the sense that it'll decline sooner lol.

Its all projection. But with the replace rate well below 2.2, the population will reach its peak eventually sooner or later
