Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced a High-Power Demography Mission on Friday (August 15, 2025). However, a similar committee announced before the 2024 Lok Sabha Election was never formed.
In her Interim Budget speech on February 1, 2024, Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman said that the committee will be constituted to consider the challenges arising from “fast population growth and demographic changes”. The terms of reference and the composition of the committee were never notified.
