Hi, friends :.

I think that the biggest reason behind the so much population of India is poverty and illetrecy. Because poor people thought if they will have more children then their children will support them when they will become young because more children will earn more. And due to illetercy the village person thought if they have more children then everyone will affraid from them and no one will take mess from them.

And other reason is marriage in childhood because in India many person get marry in their childhood so obviously they will have more children. So our government should make such type of rule such that no one can get married before 25-30 years and no one can have more than two children. Then we will be able to control the population.

Hi Friends, our nation population is increasing day by day. People who are living in backward areas unaware about the family planning. They think child is gift of God how can we stop that to do. We should arrange family planning program for that kind of people. Hows small family is good for them and our country. People in small villages and in backward areas are generally uneducated. We should arrange education for them after that they will analyze the benefit of small family. India is a developing country not developed country. For their development large population is really a big hurdle or obstacle. Everyone must be aware of that.

I believe that increasing population of India is surely a grave problem and it needs attention but not by implementing laws that force people to go for one child, after all its a free democratic country and people should have the freedom of deciding their way of life. If a wealthy person can afford to educate and provide for 3 kids whats wrong with him having 3 ? the fundamental solution is to educate people about birth control methods and provide special govt privileges to people with one child. Not by punishing people who have more than 1. Also government should take care to avoid child marriages and educate people about art of life. Abortion should not be encouraged as each and every human life is a gift of god and deserves to live. So prevention is better than cure. And it should be by free will just like Australia and Canada and not by imposing it upon the citizens harshly like China.

Hi guys, This is Ali, In my opinion Increasing population is one of the burning issues of India, There are several factors that help us to control the population but education is the leading factor that could help us to guide the general public about the importance family planning which creates an awareness among all the people.

In fact government also taking all possible steps to have a control on population but I strongly believe that this is the responsibility on every citizen of India to take steps to control our population. Perhaps science and Technology also plays a crucial role in increasing the population, Advanced research on human and highly advanced machinery leads to save the life that result decline in death rate but this technology is not working at the birth decline.

Hi I'm Anjana and my opinion is that the government had done and think about to reduce the population, and day by day in our India population is increased and as well as increased influence so it is important to reduce the population and government had to rules or constraints and laws on population. A basic problem in our country is that many peoples are not graduated and they do not think about family planning so its is very important that all the people know what is the side effect of increasing the population.

Population increases just like petrol prices and gold prices. But it all lies in how we view the scenario. Rather than cribbing or brooding over the ever increasing population, you may use it as a support to climb greater heights. Population quotient-the strength of 1.52 billion dexterous population is something we all need to take into account and use as an opportunity. Indians, together can create wonders. The skill, attitude and knowledge is not match able by any other country. The call for the hour is to deploy the unemployed. The talent, ability, resources is all here, it is just that we are restraining ourselves from looking at the brighter side of it. It's still never to late. Yesterday also, in an article in Hindu I read that the fraction of Indian citizens having mental disorder is very high. The demand for psychiatrists amounts to 3500, but the supply is just 350. Where is the hidden potential? Is it being untapped, or unrecognized or both? Making the worst out of the less, tagged are looser. Making the most out of ten available, tagged as winners.

People are lazy enough so that if you don't force them to do something, they won't do it. One way to curb this problem would be an ideal dictatorship kind of government, which at this point of time can be done with a complete majority in the parliament.

We can't do anything in this matter. They want to realize everything because they aren't a child they grown up if we tell them about this means what they will think I don't know? but definitely we will become ashamed.

Immediate measure for this should be to shoot all rapists and thugs irrespective of their religion and position. India don't need them.

Atleast jails will be free and resources can be used for better utilised and innocent people can walk on streets without fear.

I am sure that will get reduce lot of junk population from India.

By imposing strict family planning rules, next few generations may end up with more aging population and that can cause major problem with economic growth and Productivity.
