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.

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.

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!

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.

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.

In my opinion, India should not adopt a one-child policy as we know India is no.1 in population and most of them are youth and youth have a major role in the development of our country first the one-child policy started in China and many people kill their girl child or having an abortion they only want one boy child and in India without the one-child policy, many people don't want a girl child so that's why India should adopt two child policy rather than one child policy so our country developed and maintained the population as well.

Hello Everyone,

I am Harsh Ghosh, And I want to start the group discussion with completely disagreeing on the matter "Should India have a One Child Policy?".

As the matter of fact It posses serious threat to girl child as most family would want to have a boy to continue their legacy or inherit their possessions. And also support in them in their old days. But with one child that being a girl child, they may become insecure and my consider "FOETICIDE".

Certainly this policy would help in population control but the sex ratio would extremely disturbed.

Good evening team.

My name is Baidya.

I’m glad to start on discussion on the topic of "Should India adopt single child policy?

In my point of view, Yes, India should adopt a single-child policy, as this day is India’s number one in population point of view adopting single child policy, the first child standard of education, the standard of health care, and a great balance of life could be maintained. If more than one child is in any family then this will lead to dividing the whole wealth into two parts. So the single-child policy is beneficial in all points of view.

Thanks.

Hi All,

I feel that the one-child policy is more suitable for a developed nation like the USA and not for India, as we are still in the developing phase of growth. Maybe after a few years from now we will think of this policy.

Although we are currently no 1 in population at the same time we must know that youth has a major role in the development of the country. Hence "Hum do and humare do" would be a nice version of the one-child policy and it will also balance the sex ratio of the country.

Yes, I think India should strictly have to follow this rule of one child policy just to control the population of our country and also the main thing was to utilise all the resources easily if the population can be controlled so there will never face any problems like the stagnation of the resources I think Indian government should badly implement this and think about that matter for the better economy.
