Families have 2 or less kids

Now, majority of families have 2 or less kids.

For the first time in the country's recorded history, more than half the families do not have more than two children, according to Census 2011 data released on Monday.

While 54% married women reported having two or less children, this is significantly up from the 46.6% two-or-less children mothers counted by the previous Census in 2001, reflecting a pan-India desire for smaller families.

There were about 34 crore married women who had about 92 crore children in 2011: an average of about 2.69 children per married woman.
