During which period, India's population marked negative growth rate ?
Answer: B
India's population showed a negative growth rate in 1911-21, when it fell by about 0.3 per cent, mainly because of the influenza epidemic of 1918-19 and the famines and other disasters of the period. 1921 is therefore called the year of the great divide.
The other periods show positive growth: 1901-11 and 1921-31 had increases of about 5.8 and 11 per cent, and 1991-2001 had a rise of about 21 per cent.
