The overriding objective of video
economic and social
development is to improve
- - the quality of lives that
people lead, to enhance their
well-being, and to provide
them with opportunities and
choices to become
productive assets in society.
In 1952, India was the first
country in the world to
launch a national
programme, emphasizing
family planning to the extent
necessary for reducing birth
rates "to stabilize the
population at a level
consistent with the
requirement of national
economy"
After 1952, sharp declines in
death rates were, however,
not accompanied by a
similar drop in birth rates.
The National
Health Policy, 1983 stated
that replacement levels of
total fertility rate (TFR)
should be achieved by the
year 2000.
On 11 May, 2000 India is
projected to have 1 billion3
(100 crore) people, i.e. 16
percent of the
world's population on 2.4
percent of the globe's land
area. If current trends
continue, India
may overtake China in 2045,
to become the most
populous country in the
world. While global
population has increased
threefold during this century,
from 2 billion to 6 billion, the
population of India has
increased nearly five times
from 238 million (23 crores)
to 1 billion in the same
period. India's current annual
increase in population of
15.5 million is large enough
to neutralize efforts to
conserve the resource
endowment and environment

To define the Population
term Population is the term typically
Population. used to refer to the number of PPT
people in a single area.
Governments conduct a Lecture and discussion
census to quantify the size of a
resident population within a
given jurisdiction.
The term is also applied to
non-human animals,
microorganisms,

To discuss
the need of a Stabilising population is an
population essential requirement for
policy promoting sustainable
development with
more equitable distribution. Lecture and discussion
However, it is as much a
function of making
reproductive health
care accessible and affordable
for all, as of increasing the
provision and outreach of
primary
and secondary education,
extending basic amenities
including sanitation, safe
drinking water
and housing, besides
empowering women and
enhancing their employment
opportunities,
and providing transport and
communications

India occupies 2.41% of the

by the civil and political
liberties enjoyed by their
citizens; by the protection
guaranteed to children and by
safety provisions made for the

disadvantaged people. With
this vision, the National
Population Policy was framed.
