REASONS FOR POPULATION EXPLOSIION•   The recent increase in the world

population has been caused due to the following major reasons:

MOST IMPORTANT INTERVENTIONS

• Besides these ,the most important intervention is creating awareness among adolascent girls and boys about the hazards of large family and about various family planning methods.

• ONE CHILD NORM

Shibu lijack

ONE CHILD NORM• Given the magnitude of the

problem, any Indian government ought to be fully justified in enforcing the one-child norm in the entire country. It is China’s ruthless control of its population during the past 25 years that has catapulted it into the position of a superpower today. Perhaps a more serious debate is needed in India on whether it should continue with its two-child policy or opt for a one-child policy
