Over- population has become a major problem for India. As we know India is a developing country not a developed country till now. To become a developed country the country needs its citizens support and understanding. In today's scenario we can see that the country is getting over populated and the citizens are not able to meet all their requirements as resources are limited which leads the country to poverty and the other reason would be illiteracy. As people are not aware about family planning they go on giving birth to number of children which leads to over population.

It is sarcastic to know that India stands 7th in world's largest country but 2nd in terms of population. The rate at which India's population is increasing it is absolutely going to bring out numerous problems in India like unemployment, congestion, inflation to name a few.
What I think that its high time we must take some concrete steps to curb thus grave problem.
'Hum do hamare do' policy should be made compulsory for each and every couple other pay tax and this rule must be more strictly followed in rural areas. The notion of more children more earning should be replaced by small family happy family through campaigning. We must feel proud even if we get a girl child instead giving birth unless we get male child. Sterilization should be encouraged in rural areas.

Hello friends, this is my first time to express my feeling on such a big platform. I hope my points would be considered. See population is the root cause of all problems we are facing today and instead of increasing we should decrease our population Ofcourse not by killing we can control this in 100-150 years for this span of the year it should be mandatory not to have more than one child it's very strict but is only solution otherwise it looks a big mass extinction is very near. Hope it does not hurt any of yours feeling I guess this is only way people keep on blaming science but science is helping to fulfil this increasing population demand if the population would be less then there would be no problem.

In my view really the government had taken all the necessary steps to get rid away from this problem. People has to overcome about this. Even all the rules came in to the concern the people are not following them. This is because of illiteracy and uneducated people in villages and rural areas. They don't know the problem which govt is facing when the population is increasing, they just think about their convenience and their family background.
Some people with large families even from educated background, will allows their children to do the same thing and give birth to many children to fulfill their views and things. This is still going on. Mostly this people will also be educated but even though they won't follow. Because the rules which came in to concern are not strictly maintained and they won't bother even. Its not the whole problem was because of villagers even the same with educated. It should come from heart and soul that we should follow some rules to make our nation to live freely and conveniently.
But no one is correct in this world. Until this remains we won't reach the place like other countries are reaching. In our country all the PEOPLE are selfish about their beings not about the govt and about the rules and regulations, their no difference between educated and uneducated. TRULY and MAINLY EVERYONE SHOULD CHANGE AND THEN MAKE OTHERS TO CHANGE. THEN OUR COUNTRY WILL BE THE MOST BEAUTIFUL THAN OTHERS.

Hello my dear friends,
First of all I would like to ask a question, 'does anybody studied about any civilization which was destroyed by its increasing population?' Actually all the civilizations, which were well developed, were destroyed by their decreasing population. So increasing population considered as a problem itself a big problem. You can't blame population over mismanagement of services.
You can consider beggars which are useless, otherwise every person gives service to the nation. 20 years ago Singapore was not a well developed country, because of their low population. But now its a well developed country. Actually their prosperity increased with their population. Now their population density is more than India.
Another fact is the population of a country is increased up to only that level, to which the natural as well as artificial resources of that country allow. If the population crosses that limit the nature itself balances it. So we should not worry about our increasing population instead of it we should be proud of our population because:
TO MAKE THIS COUNTRY WELL DEVELOPED AND PROSPEROUS WE NEED MORE AND MORE HANDS.

Hi friends,
Increasing in population is one of the major problem in India. This is happening because the people don't have awareness. i.e they don't know what problems will we face due to increase in population. So government should take care of this and implement some plans to control this. Not only government, media also need to put some awareness programs about this.
And finally when ever people realize the problems that we are facing then only it will control.

Hi Friends, According to me we must encourage people to increasing population. People in India are more than 50% people are living below poverty line. They think more children means more earning hands. We have to take steps to change people thinking.

As we all aware that India and china are leading nations for having reached at big numbers in the population. In India, usual practice, People say in order to eliminate illiteracy factors, the proof of burden might envisages the path to curtail the population. Never! Never! Never! It must be even in the hands of Literate, mainly males restraint to undergo surgery after getting a child for a family. Here the male chauvinism does not allow themselves to take any measures. For anything, there is no need to suffering of woman. It has to be enforced rule on the part of man first.
Indian families always give importance to a child soon after their marriage partners. It is from the beginning until now practiced as custom rule to be followed. It must be eliminated from the viewpoint of Individual awareness. The child desire should be from marrying partners own concession. Just living and doing birth for society and others desire should be broken out. Though we live in techno society the impact of old usages and practices without self thinking prevails. The change in the mindset of individuals is the basic root begin this voyage. Literacy with common sense have to be yielded across tartars who ensue earth natural disasters on a whole.

Reduce population to improve the quality of standard of living. But now blaming India for over population is wrong because we are also part of that. Initiative has to come from us but it is a long process to overcome this problem. Minimum it will take around 80 years from now onward. Giving birth to one child or not giving birth is first step to be done. Instead of giving birth we should help poor people to seek. Benefits.

Hi, I am Pankaj Sharma and want to share my views on increasing population. As we know our population goes increasing every day, only make a concerns about it but not seems its positive effects on controlling. Because simple only concerning is not the solution of any problems. For controlling this problem first we should define the role of government and common people like NGO or other awareness institutions which is involved in this directly or partially. We should take our responsibility with seriousness and also defined its output in reference to time.
We should in increase our speed for working and checked its output if we not found positive responds then change its matter and made necessary improvements. By which we also can check its response. Government should promote one hand those family follow family planning by rewarding some reservation for limited time and give some attractive facilities in every governmental field and other hand band those people who should not follow law of family planning and on that cases government should follow strictly and quickly. Without taking some hard and strict steps, birth controlling in India is not possible. So please.
