Guwahati: Giriraj Singh, a union minister and Member of Parliament for Begusaria, has once more argued that population control legislation is essential due to the scarcity of resources.
According to Singh, people who disobey the population control law that the Centre plans to introduce should lose their right to vote.
He further said that the population control should be implemented on everybody irrespective of their religion.
“Population control bill is crucial, we’ve limited resources. China implemented ‘one child policy’, controlled population and achieved development. China has 10 children born a minute while India has 30 children born a minute, how’ll we compete with China,” Singh added.
