Literate states are more likely to have a efficient tab on population with also states with households owning a TV as per studies conducted. By TV its not a house having a TV will have lesser children but can be aware of various initiatives by the government for population control. Actually, the truth is that the south Indian states have already reached the replacement rate. The two major states of UP and bihar contribute largely to population rise.

I don't quite understand what's taking the Indian government to educate and implement a more comprehensive birth control programme in these states? I believe that corrupt governments want these states to remain in poverty primarily fueled by population so that more money can be effectively looted. With absolutely no educated population the problem of accountability also does not arise since the population of these states are not aware of what's actually been done to them.

Population is a true devil for India. It is one of the worst problems for India. Government should take proper steps in controlling the ever increasing giant population in India. I think that the most important factor in the increase of population is illiterate. So government should try its best to remove illiteracy from its roots. Also some rules should be formulated for controlling the population.

According to my point of view increase in population is curse of our society. I wonder why people don't think about future planning, actually illiteracy is the main problem behind it, but we should start it from our family. I think now a days one child policy should be adopted by doing this we can give all facility what he/she is has to get. It will effect for others then our family members, neighbors, locality, city, then to the nation. It needs some action to perform don't need words.

Hi, friends as we all know that the population of our country is increasing day by day. So, the people's attitude towards marriage, family size and child birth must change before we can hope to achieve a substantial decline in the birth rate. According to 2001 census, the total population of Andhra pradesh was nearly 7,50,000.

Broadly speaking, there are three general and main causes for increase in the population of a country.

-> High birth rate.
-> Relatively lower death rate.
-> Immigration.

Population explosion is one of the obstacles for the development of the economy. So, the government has to take remedial measures to decrease the population explosion like removal of poverty poor people have virtually no interest in limiting the size of their families. Living in poor conditions they are habitual to laziness so, they are depending on their children earnings if they have more children they can earn more.

So the attitude of the people towards the population must change. People should have more knowledge about family planing. And another thing is the education also brings down the population.

We are facing many problems with this increasing population. If this continues we can't find land to live. government laws also don't affect this increasing population. Only alternative for this problem is changing the people mindset. Government has to conduct more programs to show the bad affects if this continues.As there is no awareness in rural areas so government has to conduct awareness programs in rural area. Then they will know the disadvantages of over population and limit their children to one or two.

In my views population is the big problems in nowadays. Because every person want to become success but they are facing lot of problems such as deerness, corruption etc. The most useful solution of this problem is that every person should be illiterate or at least one person of any family who take the right decisions. It helps us to reduce this problem. As my friends said that the unemployability and deerness are also increases by the population. I agree with all of you and it is solve by only because of taking much suitable decisions for our family and also for developing our country.

The topic is what shall we do about our ever increasing population. So I would first like to focus on some of the problem that arises due to the vast population. Large population means large resource consumption, more illiteracy, more unemployment, more congestion, more diversity, and most importantly these factors will lead to higher inflation as the gap between demand and supply will be increased. More demand and less supply. So it must be controlled. However population can not be controlled by the government only.

It must be brought to the knowledge of common people especially rural. So more awareness campaign need to be done in order to stop this fast growing population. But only campaigning is not going to help. Unless the people get the education they will not be able to understand the side effects of large population. So ultimately government need to do the arrangement for the education of the people so that at least the basic education must be gained by everyone. I know that there are various programs run by government to give free education to the people but it needs to be implemented correctly otherwise we will surly going to beat China in the population in next few years.

Hello friends good morning. I am Sirisha Now the topic is regarding the ever increasing population In my opinion, Education plays an important role to make a family planning but don't kill the small children who were taking birth by differentiating as boys and girls. If the family is poor also they should provide education for each and every one. So, Government should educate.

Birth control is a must for Indian, it not only effect India but others too. Population of UP comparable to Brazil, but the source of income and its living standard are incomparable. Population is not the remedy for a country like India. So stop reproducing more or else great famine is unfold to come.
