There is a need to increase awareness in the society – CM Yogi
We have to think about the increasing population- CM Yogi

UP Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath unveiled the new population policy 2021-30 on the occasion of World Population Day. Through the proposed policy, efforts will be made to increase the accessibility of contraceptive measures issued under the family planning program and to provide proper system for safe abortion and on the other hand efforts will be made to stabilize the population through improved health facilities. This includes providing accessible solutions to impotence/infertility and reducing infant and maternal mortality rates.

CM Yogi said that the role of awareness is very important in this matter. He said that population policy is related to every citizen. Rising population is the cause of poverty. He said that there should also be a gap between two children. If there is not a good gap between two children then their nutrition will also be affected. CM Yogi said that poverty and growing population are related to each other.

CM Yogi said that keeping in mind the various sections of the society, the state government is working to implement this population policy. Population policy is not only concerned with population stabilization but also to bring the path of happiness and prosperity in the life of every citizen to his doorstep. More effort is needed in UP. We will make people aware about the increasing population. People will be made aware about this in schools and elsewhere.

Amidst the discussion on the draft of the UP Population Bill 2021 of the Uttar Pradesh government, now the central government is also preparing to bring a law on it. Now the top leadership of the Bharatiya Janata Party is also slowly taking steps forward on the population control law. In order to create an atmosphere in its favor across the country, the BJP ruled states have been asked to come forward and make a policy. The population control policy of the Uttar Pradesh government is a link to this. Apart from this, by introducing the Private Member Bill in the Monsoon Session of Parliament, it is moving towards making a law.
It is to be discussed by presenting it in the Rajya Sabha. BJP’s Rajya Sabha MP Rakesh Sinha has already introduced the Private Member Bill ‘Population Regulation Bill, 2019’ regarding population control.
Let us inform that the central government is looking at the statement made by Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) chief Sharad Pawar in support of the population control policy of the Uttar Pradesh government. It is believed that the law on population control is at the top of the agenda of the central government. Although this is a private member bill, but the government plans to get this bill passed by the Rajya Sabha and for this, the exercise of garnering support from the opposition parties is also going on.
Let us inform that the draft of the Population Control Bill has been prepared by Supreme Court lawyer Ashwini Upadhyay. Ashwini Upadhyay had also written a letter to Prime Minister Modi on the occasion of World Population Day on the issue of population control.
