Women and girls in particular face unequal opportunities for education and development. In the most basic needs of nutrition, child care and health also they are discriminated against – they get less of these things than males. This can happen even within the same family. This discrimination is not always obvious. Nor is it accepted.

1. The number of non-working people increases. 

2. Per capita income decreases with increase in population.

3. Production has to be increased to provide facilities like houses, educational institutions, health centres, transport, etc. to the increasing population.

4. There is a danger of the occurrence of famine if sufficient food is not produced.

The following are the steps to be taken to restrict the over growth of population in India :

1. Family planning measures should be implemented by the government. 

2. Child marriages must be stopped. 

3. Education should be provided to all women in the country.

4. Family planning counselling centres must be maintained. 

5. Newly married couples should wait at least three years to get children. 

6. They should maintain 3 years gap between two children.

1. Migration is the third component of population growth. 

2. Migration plays a significant role in changing the composition and distribution of the population. 

3. Migration is the movement of people from one region to another. 

4. Migration is both internal and international. 

5. Internal migration does not affect the size of the population but changes the composition of the population.

According to the given paragraph, the population growth affects many ways people should aware of this and the literate people talk about the benefits share of resources is not balancing. Very few people are using more resources whereas many people are using very less resources. 

Countries like USA are using more natural resources though its population is less than 5% of the world population. In India, it is less than 16% of the population of the world is using less natural resources. In India population is steadily increasing. If population increases in this way, one day India would be the first in world population. Population is not a curse to the country development, it is a boon for the development of the country. People in any country can be divided into three categories. They are skilled, semi-skilled and unskilled. The Government has to utilise the services of the skilled for the nation’s development. The semi skilled should be made skilled. The unskilled should be provided with some training and so they would be doing some sort of productive work which would be strengthening Gross Domestic Product. Equal distribution of resources should be the target of the Government. The underdeveloped countries should focus on improving the qualities of work force. So population is not a problem. It’s a boon.
