Subject: Implementation of Strict Population Control Act in India

Dear Honorable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji,

I hope this letter finds you in good health and high spirits. I am writing to draw your attention to a matter of utmost importance and urgency that concerns the future of our great nation, India. As you are aware that India has recently surpassed all other countries to become the world's most populous nation. This demographic shift demands immediate action to address the challenges associated with overpopulation.

As concerned citizens, we believe that implementing a strict Population Control Act is crucial to safeguarding the well-being and sustainable development of our beloved country. Therefore, we are launching this signature campaign to request the government to prioritize and expedite the implementation of a comprehensive population control policy where a legally wedded couple may be allowed to have two child at the maximum .

India's burgeoning population poses numerous challenges across various sectors, including healthcare, education, employment, and natural resource management. The strain on essential services and resources, coupled with the rising demand for infrastructure, presents an immense challenge to our nation's progress.

Implementing a Population Control Act will play a pivotal role in managing these challenges effectively. The Act should aim to promote awareness about the benefits of smaller families, provide access to reproductive healthcare and family planning services, and incentivize responsible family planning practices.

Moreover, we propose that the Population Control Act should focus on the following key areas-

Awareness and Education: Launching nationwide campaigns to educate citizens about the consequences of overpopulation, the benefits of small families, and the availability of family planning resources.

Accessible Reproductive Healthcare: Ensuring easy access to affordable and quality reproductive healthcare services, including contraceptives and family planning consultations.

Incentives and Support: Introducing incentives and benefits for families who choose to have fewer children, such as tax breaks, improved access to education and healthcare facilities, and employment opportunities.

Implementation and Enforcement: Establishing robust mechanisms to monitor, enforce, and regulate the Population Control Act, ensuring its effective implementation across all states and regions of the country.

Sustainable Development: Emphasizing sustainable development practices that take into account the carrying capacity of our ecosystems, conservation of natural resources, and the need for a balanced and harmonious society.

We, the undersigned, urge the Government of India to acknowledge the urgency of this matter and take immediate steps to implement a strict Population Control Act. By doing so, we can ensure a brighter and more prosperous future for our country and generations to come.

Kindly consider our plea as a representation of the collective voices of concerned citizens who believe in the well-being and sustainable growth of India. We remain hopeful that your esteemed government will give due consideration to this pressing issue and take decisive action in the best interest of our nation.

Thank you for your attention and commitment to the welfare of our great nation.

Sincerely 

Nang Lucky Gogoi, National President of Yuva Shakti, Janasankhya Samadhan Foundation    Contact the author of the petition
