is it pride or shame? we have limited natural resources and india is not doing anything to reduce population. Cities are getting over crowded and politicians are just interested in counting man made money.

[@kaypee4704]

Why blame government and Politicians for something that's an Individual 's responsibility..... you should know whether you can afford a family....why should Government monitor your sexual behaviors......know when to screw and avoid having children.....don't wait for others to counsel you.....‼⁉️

[@panyaboonc5621]

If India surpass China as the world most high speed railway system in term of total length. Then, that is something to be proud of to report.

[@agnescraig2912]

India always compares itself with china or Africa when population density is talked about. Why not with Europe who are fighting against climate change and reducing our dependence on the natural resources. Indians always migrate Westward and not the to Africa or China and Russia

[@vadimvasilyev1750]

Rather disaster because of every human demands an electric power, electric energy, different food (milk, meat, grains, vegetables, fruits etc.), water. Every person produce wastes (sanitary safety). And this is about security (true criminal rate)! Can India provide all of these resources for every citizen? That is the question of your discussion!

[@chandrasekar7578]

Population is not a bane at all. But the inability and corruption in the government and greed of the corporations will make things worse. Even if they create, they will create low level jobs and boasts their achievement.. but the loser is the current younger generation at the end!

[@corpsertag5967]

Fun times ahead to watch the lives of those who multiply like insects...

[@agnescraig2912]

If it is not a bane at all then why is there so much poverty hunger lack of water job and so on. The more people there are the greater the dependency on slave labour and corruption and human trafficking. The Indians crossing the border from Canada to the US drowned and froze. Indians are paying smugglers to get to the UK in boats across the channel. Using student route and any other means to leave India. Legal estimates show 180,000 left India last year alone. Don't bury your head in the sand by not looking at reality

[@bluedragon7849]

Dont blame all to corruption. Humans need also to blame themselves. The planet has limited resources and cant sustain to feed all the people.

[@Happiness.789]

Bhai resources is always limited.

[@drakenkraken8455]

300 million Indians became willing followers of the 20 Million British and served them everywhere. Even fought for them in 2 world wars. Who were the soldiers at Jalianwala Bagh - NOT BRITISH

[@agnescraig2912]

Numbers are nothing to be proud of. Slave labour and human trafficking comes to mind. The ones who fought at Jallianwalla and survived chose British passports. The Britis also took the Indians to Africa as labourers and their children have been educated and have better job and a better life than Indians in India

[@blaumax918]

It's a bane. It will mean more poor people and a poorer standard of living.

[@krishan6331]

Thank you🙏🇮🇳

[@arunbadalkar6936]

We are no.1 in many ways : Population, Corruption, Berojgari, poverty, dirtiness, Faltu Bakwas, Nothing like us {Brahminism /Hinduism}, mis management, Jatiawad, Handful having billions/billions, millions/millions dont have money to buy bread but they do pay taxes, etc,etc list is endless.!

[@ayushsarangi7242]

Reservation , unemployment, in boasting before achieving also

[@thenextthor]

Population is a strength in all means...but the governing authority have to wisely plan to tackle the issues like unemployment,food security,crimes, etc.... For a strong govt with heavy population can rule the world

[@blaumax918]

Only when you are a super power. Otherwise you will remain a third world country with a poor standard of living, and low quality life.

[@mygame4451]

joke? there is not enough space to walk even on the roads because of over crowding.

[@corpsertag5967]

It's neither a strength nor a weakness. It's a disgust and a shame.

[@Happiness.789]

How will government provide employment for the millions of people???

[@thenextthor]

@@Happiness.789 Do everyone have employment in Vatican City, Nauru, Ireland etc ? In all those places population is too small...

It is never a demographic dividend only a bane. Increase in slave labour and human trafficking-India tops the world. The pundit who says it is not a problem why have Indians migrating every day.

[@aishwaryanemani2614]

Why are the comments here are so negative when the expert himself said that population is not a Bane when handled properly. It's only a big challenge guys but we have good leaders and it's truly a golden age for India. This is the time where we can bring the change we want to see in our country. It is time we should stop crirtising how the leaders are dealing with the situation and actually start doing something for ourselves!!

[@ayushsarangi7242]

We did...We made 100 loss making unicorns which r just copy waste of us products....and we boast like we r self sufficient like china and will become 20 trillion economy and China wud be in our foot....

[@Raghav_Modi]

Namaskar,🙏🙏🙏🙏 Rishi Sunak's grandpa ran away from British India, once he found out that Gandhi wanted independence. Truth being told- it was a good decision. Today, Failed State India ranks 107 on Hunger Index, 132 on HDI, 180 on EPI, 126 on Happiness Index. There are specific temples in India (like Chilkur Balaji) where Indians pray for visa to run away🙏🙏

[@deepakkumar0801]

India Ranks 107 on Hunger Index despite no shortage of food supplies and poverty was least since independence and Pakistan ranks 99 on Hunger Index while it's citizens fighting for wheat, can't afford cooking gas, prices are all time high. This shows international index ratings are not trustworthy and just a propoganda.

[@agnescraig2912]

Spot on comment. Have mentioned this constantly as have first hand experience of running away too.
