It is actually 226 million not 220 million,
2017 census > 212million > yearly growth at 2.2% > 4.66million x 3 > 14million = 226 million
Pakistan's population is projected to stabilize at around the 400 million+ mark, even with effective population control measures. If you look at other countries', and their population growth history, even with successful family planning programs, their populations continued to grow. So, with 226 million now, 400 million is an assured figure.
Pakistan is still self-sufficient in food resources even with agricultural inefficiencies, and bad water management, especially in agriculture which consumes more than 90% of our water resources. If we improve on both measures Pakistan is very capable of hosting a very large population. it is a matter of getting our house in order and learning to be efficient.
Like it or not, with a population at around 400 million, Pakistan is going to be a major player in global politics, provided we start developing like before. Not to be complacent, but, I for one, am very hopeful that we will be OK.
