My guesses are:
Big reason:
People in third world countries are going out of poverty and for 
those who do programming the first language they learn is not C 
because it is too low level. They start with something that can 
be used to make an app or a website easily.

Smaller reason:
C is being replaced in some applications by Go, D and C++.
