Bangladesh has decreased the total fertility rate significantly since independence in 1971. For the past five or 6 years the Birth Rate has been fairly stable, though estimates for 2009 predict a decrease. The population growth rate estimate for 2009 is 1.29% according to the CIA World Factbook. This places Bangladesh just behind Brazil and Australia, both at 1.2%, in terms of total population growth. Of course, the lower life expectancy in Bangladesh means that the crude birth rate is higher than these countries.

Many factors contribute to the high birth rate in Bangladesh. These include:

  • Low literacy rates, particularly among women and in rural areas
  • Pervasive extreme poverty: Birth Control, while inexpensive, may still be unaffordable
  • Religious environment: birth control is often incompatible with Muslim beliefs
  • Women's place in society - while a woman may desire to use birth control, she may be forbidden to so so by her husband.
  • A strong cultural preference for boys may lead some women to have more children than they would like. Women who only have girls may be shunned by their families, divorced, or abandoned. The husband may take a second wife hoping to have a son.
  • Ignorance of birth control methods
  • Ignorance of basic biology and the "facts of life."
  • Difficulty accessing birth control for some parts of the rural population
Bangladesh has come a long way in terms of controlling population. Various modern birth control methods are readily available in shops and are often provided without cost by NGOs at area clinics. Unfortunately, some organizations have pursued population control at the expense of women's rights. It is not uncommon for a woman to be prescribed a "menstrual regulation" procedure at a local clinic when her period is late. This is really a D & C performed as an early abortion, and is often done without the full knowledge / informed consent of the woman.

You see, human being like to keep and see themselves in the peace, rich and prosperous place . In the present world - every body wants to stay in the very developed and rich countries like the USA, Japan, Great Britain, Germany, Canada ... .... and so on.

Human Souls live in Heaven. While coming from the heaven to enjoy some holidays in the earth, most of the human souls find Bangladesh very lucrative to land, stay and to fly from. Therefore, they request Almighty God to allow them to born in the most amazing and a very beautiful place like Bangladesh of the planet earth in the solar system.

By the by, did you visit Bangladesh anytime? You should visit Bangladesh to understand the fact - why so many human souls come from heaven to born from Bangladesh?
