India is a vast country with different people, cultures and religions. It is a developing country so it has to deal with many problems like poverty, unemployment, etc. Prime root cause of all these problems is daily increasing population. We have crossed the mark of billion and are second after China in population.

The main problem which arises due to increasing population, is of unemployment. There are limited numbers of jobs but eligible candidates are more than that. So, everyone is not able to get the job and problem of unemployment is increasing day by day This problem leads us to many other problems like poverty and crime. Not gaiting right job leads our youth to adapt wrong means to satisfy his needs. Unemployment leads to poverty. People are not able to get proper food, education and other normal necessities of life. This state further leads to depression. Some people in depression commit suicide while others to fulfil their daily requirements start doing wrong deeds for money. People start robbing, murder and all other immoral things to make their life comfortable.

In this way increasing population shakes up whole moral, social and psychological order of society.

Causes

There are different reasons of growing population in India. Illiteracy is main cause of this problem. People are uneducated and they don't know the importance of having small families. They keep on having more children just to increase their financial status. They think the more children they will have, it will help them in their future. But they

are not aware of the facts that increase in population leads to many different problems.

Other main reason for this is that people want to have a baby boy and until they did not have a boy they keep on having babies. So the greed of having boy is also another cause of increasing problem. But this problem has imbalanced the whole biological system.

Methods

There are many ways in which we can still manage to keep our population in control. Education is the best way to make everyone aware of the ill effects of increasing population people in villages must get proper education so that they come to know about family planning and understand what its all about. They must get proper education also that they can later on give their children proper education.

Government should take serious steps to make more ways to reach to villagers and make them understand about family planning, equality between boys and girls and importance of small families.

People should on their own become more broad-minded and make others also aware of this huge problem which can effect our status of living. If we want to control our problems like crime, poverty, unemployment, and illiteracy then the one way to do this is to control increasing population.
