Encyclopaedia of Population Problem And Control (Population Problem And Control) (PDF)

It is not surprising that our population has become a matter of serious concern at various levels in the Government. Our experts have come out with different strategies to achieve the target of population control. Some of them have spoken of social development. Others have expressed the view in favour of economic development. Still others feel that by raising the age at marriage, especially that of girls, fertility can be brought down. Some of them feel that high Iiteracy alone can bring down level of high fertility. Perhaps we need a broad based package of all round development to control our population as early as possible. However, the population problems are not small in number, content or size and to find an answer to these problems is not easy. Concerted efforts have to be made by resorting to if necessary, unpleasant action plans giving due consideration and thought to side-track counter productivity elements within the family planning scheme of things.
