Answer:
India's demographic conditions during the British rule depict our economy as stagnant and backward. Due to high birth rate and high death rate the population growth was stagnant before 1921 the Infant Mortality Rate was also very high of about 218 per thousand which today stands at 47.57 per thousand. The; life expectancy rate was a low as 32 years while presently, it is around 66.8 years. The literacy rate was less. than 16% with female literacy rate of just 7% which denotes social backwardness and gender bias in the economy.
