The population of Rajasthan in 2011 was 6.85 crore, whereas the total population of India was 121.06 crore. The total population of Rajasthan is 5.7% of the total population of India. From 2001, up till 2011, population increase in India was 17.7% while this increase has been 21.3% in Rajasthan. This is an issue of serious concern. Rajasthan is at the eighth place in India in context to population.
