Most population experts believe that less developed nations must initiate family planning or welfare program in order to check population growth. This program allows couples to determine the number and spacing of offspring's.

For less developed countries family planning programme can accelerate the decline in birth that occurs slowly through economic growth and the demographic transition. Some researchers believe that family planning program is responsible for a 40% to 50% decline in fertility in these countries.

It means smaller size of family that is one to two children may be either male or females. The family should accept car and not baby. Family planning programme has been initiated by health department of the Government.

Huge amount of money is been spent by the Government of India because India is second populous country in the world. We have already crossed one hundred crores people by now.

More than 30&40 crores are married couple in our country. If we observe the principal of the family planning than by the end of a few years the population of this country shall be more than China. We have already crossed one hundred crores people by now.

Family welfare programme which is a need of the day stress the following recommendations.

1. One or two children to a family.

2. Child by choice and not by accident.

3. Having more children and not bringing them up in a proper standard is violence.

4. Having healthy children.

5. Using contraceptives at the time of male-female mating.

6. Sterilization both bisectomy and vasectomy.

7. Late marriage.

8. Fixing marriage age of both male and female. It is 18 years for female and 21 year for male. In urban areas this age is on the hire side.

9. Banning universal marriage.

10. Educating woman for having smaller size of family.

11. Spreading family planning programmes in rural areas of Indian society.

12. Disseminating education in rural areas in such a style that they prefer small size of family.

13. Children may not be considered gift of nature but result of mating either sex.

14. Spreading and advertising about the use of family planning measures.

15. Opening more and more family welfare centre in rural India because 70% population live in village.

16. Providing incentive to those who can have small size of family.

If above measures are adopted effectively then sufficient economic welfare can be exercised to Indian society.

Kerala has earned the distinction of having lowest birth rates among all states of India. The main parameters deciding the affectivity of this model depends upon the age of marriage of women at 21 years as against an Indian average of 18 years, female literacy of 53% against Indian average of 13%, greater emphasis on primary education with 60% budget provision for the same, as against 50% in many other states better public distribution system of food among 97% of population, better medical facilities in rural areas and greater success of family planning programs.

The Kerala Model has its own success story emphasizing the affectivity of social justice approach for family planning.

Essay on increasing population in only 200 words?

Population explosion is the most serious problem facing our country today. With 16 per cent of the world's population, India is toady the second largest populations' country in the world. As on March 1.1991, when the last census was conducted, the country's population stood at 846.30 million, with 439.23 males and 407.07 females. The country's population is currently estimated at about 950 millions. The population growth has been extremely rapid in the last 50 years. The phenomenal growth is now more appropriately termed as "population explosion". The phenomenal growth rate in population is largely because of the industrial and technological revolutions that had taken place in the recent times. The new technologies have not only brought down the death rate because of the vastly improved Medicare resulting in increased life expectancies, but had also facilitated increased food production to take care of food needs of the increasing population. Though population explosion is a major problem being faced by several other countries too, with the world population estimated to reach 7 billion by the beginning of the 21st century, the problem is much more severe in India because of the increasing pressure on the limited resources of the country. With the growth of food grains not keeping pace with the increase in population during some years because of the unfavourable weather conditions, the specter of hunger hunts millions of households in the country. Even when the country is fortunate enough to have a bumper crop, these hungry households do not have the economic strength or purchasing power to buy the required food grains. The phenomenal population growth exerts immense pressure on other basic necessities like education, health, housing, clothing, employment opportunities etc. With employment opportunities in the rural areas becoming scarce, population explosion is resulting in increasing migration of rural poor to the urban areas in search of jobs. The increasing pressure on the urban areas is giving rise to more number of slums and this is multiplying the problems in the urban areas as health is the first casualty in slums. To check ill-effects of population growth on the socio-economic front, the Indian government had lunched the Family Planning Programme in 1951. This was later rechristened as the Family Welfare Programme. This programme promotes on a voluntary basis, responsible Planned Parenthood, through independent choice of family planning methods best suited to the people. Though the Family Welfare Programme has resulted in significant declines in death rates and infant mortality besides almost doubling life expectancy, a lot more needs to be done if the population explosion is to be effectively checked. For this, we have to improve the literacy rate, female education and the socio-economic status of the families as population growth is directly linked to these factors. The fact that Kerala could make a lot of progress in checking population growth testifies to the impact of literacy on population explosion. The government should also intensify its efforts to educate the people on the adverse effects of population explosion. The population explosion can be effectively checked only when the people are inclined towards smaller families. With increasing literacy rate and improved socio-economic status, the people can be educated to adopt a favorable attitude towards smaller families. When this happens, the population explosion can be checked.
