This province has too many people. India split it into 2 provinces. Now the population exceeds 200 million.

In the history of the development of administrative divisions in our country, there have been many splits, basically because of too much population. The most typical Fuyang City was split into Fuyang and Bozhou, and the original Sichuan was split into Sichuan Province and Chongqing City, etc. This is also very common internationally. The most typical example is in India. There was a province with too many people, so India split it directly into two provinces. Now the population of this province exceeds 200 million, and it is overcrowded.

This province is Uttar Pradesh in India. India is the second most populous country in the world, second only to my country. Therefore, the population of provincial units in India is also very large. The largest number of them is Uttar Pradesh, which is located in northern India and borders Nepal. It is the core state of India, also known as Hindustan. It played an important role in the process of India's independence. It is the province of origin of India and is equivalent to Henan in our country.

Uttar Pradesh initially covered an area of ??more than 300,000 square kilometers and was the third largest state in India. However, the main problem of Uttar Pradesh is that it has too many people. At that time, the population of Uttar Pradesh was close to 200 million in 1999, making it the most populous state in India. The population density was unprecedented, accounting for 20% of India at the time, which became a big problem in India.

So in 2000, India implemented a split, splitting the northwestern region of Uttar Pradesh to form Uttarakhand, which split the original Uttar Pradesh into two states, Uttar Pradesh and Uttarakhand. Khand State, thus alleviating population pressure. But just over a decade later, Uttar Pradesh's current population has reached 250 million, a direct increase of 40%. It is the most populous province in India and the most populous province in the world.

Many people don’t understand why there are so many people in Uttar Pradesh. The main reason is that the fertility rate here is too high. Uttar Pradesh is mainly populated by Hindustani people who believe in Hinduism. This has always been a place of support for India, and India has been increasing the proportion of Hindustanis, so it is vigorously increasing the population in Uttar Pradesh. Hinduism also encourages childbirth.

Moreover, Uttar Pradesh has fertile land, mostly plains, and abundant water resources. Therefore, agriculture is developed and it can feed a larger population. Therefore, the fertility rate in Uttar Pradesh remains high, the highest in India, so the population has grown explosively. It is unimaginable that a split state would have a population close to that of Indonesia.

Moreover, the population of Uttar Pradesh is still increasing rapidly and will soon exceed 300 million. By then, the population of Uttar Pradesh will be almost the same as that of the United States. It is worth noting that although Uttar Pradesh has a large population, its economy is backward and its per capita GDP is very low. It is a relatively poor state in India.
