Hello everyone.

First of all, thanks for giving me this opportunity.

So the given topic is very interesting (should India have a one-child policy?).

In my opinion, India shouldnot apply this policy because in future the child will not have any siblings and relatives then they feel lonely but if we look at the other side, India should have a one-child policy because poor parents have one child then they will Able to give good education to their child and but poor parents have more than one child then they will not Able to give good education.

Because of this India should have one-child policy.

"If we look at it from one side then it is right but if we look at it from the other side then it is also wrong".

Thanks.

Hello I am Digvijay.

So basically we all are gathered here to have a group discussion on the topic - should India have a one-child policy.

I am not in favor of this policy. I think we need to understand the situation and why we need to apply the policy. Nowadays situations are people are jobless, but that does not mean they are useless they also can do well, and live their lives happily.

So rather than see towards that policy we should to go for upgrading new technology that will eventually upgrade the youth. And it's not limited to population. We know countries like China, Japan are the countries with large populations they are in a way better position than compared with other countries because of technology.

So basically rather than looking for such policies we should go for the developing the the more areas where the innovation can be happens, there are mass awareness programs we can arrange so that will helpful for todays youth to be innovative look, find more opportunities.

I think it's urgently required for India to adopt a one-child policy. Instead of trying to make babies, people should first try making friends with their neighbors otherwise there will inevitably be an impending war for space and resources in the future. If we want to ensure peace in the future there needs to be population control and I repeat. It's URGENT!

India is a subcontinent. A country with the largest population in the world, even greater than China. This impacts every sector of our developing country and even if we look properly we can see this huge population is related to almost 90 per cent of problems in this country. So if the question is about the one-child policy, I must say India should have this policy, but after taking some measures to maintain the sex ratio. In many regions of India, the girl child is not accepted properly even in this 21st century so if India is going to have this policy, many awareness campaigns regarding this policy, its importance in present days and as well as the importance of girl child, should be conducted all over the country. So in the end, I must say if India is going to have a child policy, after making proper grounds for it, it must be beneficial for India's 90 per cent problems.

Hey everyone, I am Adarsh.

I think India does not need a one-child policy because looking at the data the birth rate in India has fallen over the years and is now 2.1 which is exactly equal to keeping the number of people constant. Also, the child policy can have a very adverse impact on the sex ratio, China is the perfect example here. Because of the one-child policy the sex ratio has changed over the years and is one of the worst in the world, there a approximately 30 million more men than women. Also, the Indian population can be a great resource for the fast development of the country at a time when developed countries are facing a crisis of older population.

Hello everyone.

My name is Harshit.

In my opinion India should not adopt a child policy because it increases the killing of girl children. Still, we also want to reduce the problems due to the High population, so we need to educate people that they are born with 2 children.

No, absolutely not, because India is 2nd largest country in the world in the manner of population and it has a great history and thoughts of ancestors to grow and live with family. In a single child, a family will not become a joint family and remain a nuclear family so it causes many effects on human find because there will not be a present to guide a boy and no one other bro/sis to play with him. Then he will not know the feeling of family and then our India will become like England and us there condition of the family are worst and now China is facing the same problem and their sex ratio is facing a problem so we should learn from other countries what are happening in other countries then implement here.

While the idea of a one-child policy may address some of India's population-related challenges, the negative consequences and ethical concerns likely outweigh the potential benefits. Policies aimed at improving education, healthcare, and economic opportunities, particularly for women, tend to be more effective and less intrusive ways of managing population growth.

Encouraging voluntary family planning and providing access to contraceptive methods can also help achieve sustainable population levels without the need for coercive measures.

Hello all,

According to my perspective. One child policy seems like a ban while viewing the outcomes of the policy in different aspects.

Childbearing giving birth is something which has an emotional connection with humans. Many families have 2 or more children due to some common reasons yet valid reasons like they do not want their child being grow lonely unaware of the sibling bond and in some cases, the parents want multiple heirs for their savings and earnings etc.

Rather than keenly focusing on the one-child policy, the government can plan on developing the country to accommodate a growing population rightfully.

My opinion on this topic is that India should not adopt this policy because we are Indians we live in a joint family, and we have a culture that we can stay with many people in comparison to living alone. If parents are capable of taking care of two children, and giving them well and good education then the child have a sibling, that he can play with, go to school and many more things.
