India is the seventh largest country in the world as per its land and second largest as per its population. The land area of our country is 2 per cent of the world and population is 15 per cent. At present China is the most populous country in the world but it is the second largest country as per area in the world. Our growing population is going to leave China behind in near future. The population is continuously increasing but land is still the same which means extra burden on land and all other resources. The country is rich in many types of natural and man-made resources and brilliant brains but if the population increases at the same pace all these resources will fell short. Just think, what will the dangerous effects of swelling population? It will eat up all the resources of the country. Ever growing population will require more houses, Schools, hospitals, roads, decreasing of agriculture land and shortage of foodgrains, unemployment will goes up, more pollution, shortage of drinking water, poverty, crime or terrorism will increase. What will be the horrible situation when we will without drinking water, houses, food and an abundance of diseases without treatment and uncontrollable pollution? Hence it is the need of the hour to make an effective law to control the population but it requires courage, selfless mind set and sincere love for the country. We are facing such problem today because of selfish and spinelessness leadership, feeble in decision making and lust for political gain. The govt. at the centre need courage and selfless approach to make an effective law to check the population growth today or tomorrow will be late. No doubt, gang of selfish and power lusty will folk together and rise against the law and create hurdles. At present, the centre govt. has already made good decisions which were declared impossible by the previous Governments. Let’s hope that the ruling Government will come out with a solution for this problem to save the future generation from turmoil.
