Answer

Active labour force in the country can be known through the study of population according to age group.

In India people of the age group between $15$ and $64$ are included as working age group.
It is known as active labour force of the nation.
From $2005$ to $2014$ there were $32.78\%$ people in the age group of $0-14$ years of age which reduced to $29.21\%.$
In the same way the proportion of the age group above 65 years has increased from $4.78$ to $5.49\%.$
Working labour group proportion $(15-64$ years$)$ has increased from $62.44\%$ to $65.03\%.$
Which is good for the development of the nation.
