What is the News?<\/b><\/h5>\n

The Ministry of Health and Family Welfare has released the Family Planning Vision-2030 document.<\/span><\/p>\n

What are the key highlights from the Family Planning Vision-2030 document?<\/b><\/h5>\n

India\u2019s Population:<\/b> India has the second-largest population in the world. India\u2019s population has reached 136.3 crores (1.36 billion) and is expected to reach 147.9 crores (1.47 billion) by 2031 and a further 152.2 crores (1.52 billion) by 2036.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2013 India\u2019s population is expected to continue to grow until mid-century (due to population momentum). The population growth will decline substantially after that.<\/span><\/p>\n

Teenage Fertility Rate:<\/b> The fertility rate has stabilized all across the country. But the high teenage fertility in some areas remains a cause of concern.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2013 As per data, there has been a steady decline in teenage childbearing from 7.9% in the National Family Health Survey (NFHS-4) to 6.8% (in the NFHS-5).<\/span><\/p>\n

— But this issue remains a priority area that requires to be addressed, especially since India will continue to have one of the youngest populations in the world until 2030.<\/span><\/p>\n

Contraceptive use<\/b>: The modern contraceptive use among married adolescents and young women is increasing over time. But it still remains low.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2013 The two most important factors that explain low contraceptive use among married adolescents and young women are child marriage and teenage pregnancy.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Male Contraceptive use:<\/b> The male contraceptive methods were largely limited to condoms. Male sterilization was at 0.3%.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2013 Hence, the document’s priority will be to encourage the participation of men in the family planning programme.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
