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.

Hi guys,

India is like China, with a rapid increase in population. If its population increases, so does its economy, as there will be cheap labour, which will attract investors to come and start businesses. And when its economy increases, more and more people become more rich and educated, then India will become a more economically developed country, and then its people will start to have less babies, as they will work more, then the population will decrease. Don't you see? Its just a cycle going round and round.

Hi,

In my opinion increasing population is a major problem in India. Due to it we can see many problems such as unemployment, lack of medical facilities etc. This increasing population should be reduced. The government has to play a major role to do this. It can be done conducting by some awareness programs and making aware to the people about the impacts of increase in population, implementing schemes like family planning, one child motto or two etc. And also every citizen should be a part of this awareness programs in educating the people about the population increasing. Some of these steps can be useful in reducing the population to some extent.

The pace of population growth in India has reduced to certain extent in the last decade as compared to other decades. Now in 2014 in India maximum parents has an average of 2 children but in 1970 it was 4. It means that ppl are more getting education about sex and birth control. So education is the only way to get rid of this problem. I think that the cities, towns are on the right track but the village should come in the limelight. They need more education to eradicate this problem.

Good afternoon friends, This is B. Tarakeswara Rao. I would have to talk about population.

What is a population. Population is all the inhabitants present in particular place. We are all know India is a developing country and the growth is steady and stable. Along with India facing so many problems. In those one is population. Population explosion is due to lack of awareness in the people. In case of this growth in population we have some advantages and some more disadvantages. Coming to advantages with increase in population.

1) Availability of labour is high.
2) We get high skilled labour.
3) In war situation the country will the large people will get upper hand.

Coming to disadvantages:.

1) Lack of resources like land, oil and food Etc.
2) Lack of unemployment.

Following measures should be sought to control the population in our country:

1. Measures to increase Per-capita Income.
2. Urbanization and Industrialization.
3. Late Marriage.
4. Lowering Infant Mortality Rate.
5. Spread of Education.
6. Women education and employment.
7. Family Planning Facilities.
8. Incentives.
9. Publicity.
10. Legislation.

This is because of callous attitude of some states. Like up, Bihar, west Bengal. All other states have more or less stabilised the population.

1. People who have 2 or less than 2 children will be given a job and food for their family. The financial problem should be taken care.

2. The government must promise that those children will be given scholarship till they become an educated person.

Hi friends, population control is not a one day project by a single hand. We are sitting in a chair in pool which water level is increasing. Is it safe! Someone in high level and someone low level height chair but the water surly sink everyone of us. The effect of population growth already affected low class people, increasing price of products like milk, bus ticket, land rate, fuel and more. They are lacking of education. Okay these are effect of population.

How to control this?

Education is main root, government should include the affects of population in the textbooks of school and colleges. And make some special camp for every 3 months for family planning. And we should be strongly act mature. The rate of population growth of India is 1.9 per annum where china is 0.93 per annum. India will be in no. 1 in population by 2030.

Hi myself Ajit.

Population is the number of occupants in a particular place. In India it is becoming a major problem. India is now second highest Populated country In the country but if population growth would not reduced than in 2030 it will become the most populated country.

The major problems arises due to overpopulation is lack of resources, poverty, unemployment and many more. In my opinion Education is the most imp way to prevent overpopulation. People should know the consequences of over population. Government should start some programmes or lectures on overpopulation to awake the generation specially in rural areas. They should be provided free contraceptive helps.

Read in times of India today abut lay-offs waiting to happen. In a country like India where you don't have social security to protect you, layoffs can be a great shock. With more than a billion people loitering about in the country, with already a low employment rate we have more and more people added into the job industry with hardly any jobs. Whats going on?

Man is selfish and masochistic in this country with a child and without any means to support the child, leave alone the growth of the child but also the basic necessities are a distant dream. Is it so hard to understand? Are we reduced to animals in this country? That we don't understand or we cannot analyse the right time to have a baby. Its starting to be a privileged to see a human here.
