After 75 years of Independence, India now needs a population control policy applicable to all for the next 50 years to make population an ‘asset’ to the country, said Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat on Wednesday.
Mr. Bhagwat also stressed that religion-based population balance is an important subject that can no longer be ignored.
Speaking at the programme of RSS’s foundation day celebration event on the occasion of Vijayadashmi in Reshimbaug in Nagpur, Mr. Bhagwat asked people if they can imagine how many people India can feed after 50 years. He also questioned what kind of education and healthcare will be provided to people if the population continues to grow.
