Bihar Alliance Partners Not On Same Page On Law For Population Control

Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar had said a law on population control would not serve any purpose but insisted instead on education for girls and women, which he said would help bring down the fertility rate

Differences seem to have surfaced within the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) government in Bihar over the centre's plan to bring a law to control population. Senior BJP leader and former Deputy Chief Minister Sushil Kumar Modi said "those having two children or less should only be allowed to contest panchayat elections".

In the Nitish Kumar-led NDA government in Bihar, BJP is the principal alliance partner.

Earlier this week, Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar said a law on population control would not serve any purpose but insisted instead on education for girls and women, which he said would help bring down the fertility rate.

"Population control can only be achieved by educating women and girls. Only through education and awareness, the fertility rate can be checked. The fertility rate in Bihar has come down to 3 per cent from what it used to be earlier about 4 per cent. It all happened because of our consistent effort of educating women and girls in the state. I hope that it will further come down to two per cent in the next four-five years," Mr Kumar told reporters on Monday.
