Easy there mate, no need to be angry. We are simply having a conversation here.
These "projections" as you stated depends on the way things are (your words). Do you still see that happening?
As for population, I can safely assume that you didn't read the article. My friend, total fertility rate of 2.1 is called the replacement rate, i.e. newer births will replace their parents and not add to the population.
In India's case it is 2.3 because of higher IMR. Eventually and by that I hope by the middle of the next decade, UP & Bihar too will join the rest of India. So I don't know how you came up with 1.7 billion.
