India has the second largest population in the world and so most population related numbers are bound to be big, but even so recently released Census 2011 data throws up a startling statistic — the number of students is a gigantic 315 million.
This is not only the largest student body in the world, but Indian students would make for the fourth biggest country in the world, nearly touching the US with a population of 318 million. For comparison, China's student population is about 252 million as per Unesco statistics.
