POPULATION-CONTROL ORDINANCE URGENT NECESSITY AFTER TWEET BY PRESIDENT RAMNATH KOVIND

Bureau,Odishabarta

DELHI:A tweet on 02.05.2020 during lockdown by President Ramnath Kovind should be considered of utmost importance by Central government for propagating an ordinance for Population-Control without waiting for any Parliamentary session. It is significant that Supreme Court also issued notice to central government in this regard by admitting a PIL filed by a BJP affiliated advocate. Even Congress cannot oppose the ordinance where its Abhishek Manu Singhvi has obtained nod from President of India to present Population-Control bill in Rajya Sabha. The bill with incentives for small family and disincentives for large family is well balanced and covers every important aspect to curb serious problem of population-explosion which was highlighted during lockdown period and corona-spread. Already state-governments of Assam Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra, Uttarakhand, Karnataka and Odisha have banned government-jobs from the year 2021 to those having third child.

Population-Control ordinance to be followed by a proper legislation will take care of fast changing demography in the country where a particular religious group is fast increasing percentage-share in population, while several other minorities are declining in population-share.

All government-facilities including all types of subsidies like on LPG and ration, reservation-benefits, and right to contest elections may be abolished on having a third child in the family. It should be mandatory for every hospital, private or government, to compulsorily sterilize the woman on birth of third child, where husband or wife have more than two children. It is also time to follow other Islamic countries where only one wife may be permissible for a man. Voting-rights should be snatched from even people presently having more than two-children since they did not follow regular government-appeals for planned family being made from last so many decades.
