Yes.... This year’s economic survey of government has clarified this. On the chapter on demography, It is clearly written and explain that except UP and Bihar, all states have reached the replacement level of 2.1% population growth. UP will reach by 2030 and Bihar by 2040 as the literacy and standard of living improves...

Kisi mahapurush ne kaha hai "har cheez end mein degrade ho jaati hai".Same is the case with forum.Earlier is was good and now it has descended into chaos.
There is no point of us being in support or opposition to bill.Jiske haath mein power hoti hai usko jo karna hai wo karega.
Mandal nein obc ko quota dia Jiske wajah se being born in brahmin family has become a crime for me (I pray that if born in india I m born in obc family) tab bhi bada protest hua tha.Buses jali thi as all know only sc and St need quotas and obc quota was for voted (Andre beteille) par govt ko jo karna tha kiya.
Yahan ab faltu cheezen discuss ho rahi hai aur time waste ho raha hai.
Time to say goodbye to forum.
Thank all. It was an eventful 60 days.
Adieu. ..

@rookie01Wow!! Now you want to take a higher moral ground by acting like a "sane" voice in the world where everyone is immature and you are an exception who "cares" for all. First you decide whether you want to be a civil servant or want to end up like markandey katju, yogendra yadav, the Hindu leftist editorial writers etc.

@vvvikas0078212said inMains 2019 Preparation and Discussion Thread:

@duster2019Population control bill will worsen the sex ratio and increase crime against women to the extent that it will be counterproductive. Chinese 1 child policy didn't give the expected results and all studies declared it a failure. In India, educated people are automatically opting for one or two child. Most of the states have achieved replacement level of fertility and rest are likely to achieve by 2041. Unemployed youth should be taken care of by government policies first instead of giving I'll conceived ideas like population control bill.

I have been very vocal against CAB and NRC in all my posts so far but 2 child policy is something I'll strongly support. We don't have resources to support such a large population and demographic change is real. It can mess up our future completely.

@LightYagamiIs Myanmar an Islamic nation? Are tamiliams persecuted due to religious differences or ethnic causes? Is Sri Lanka an Islamic nation? Should India take all the refuges from all across the world? Should Bill also include kurds, Yemen refugees, xinjiang Muslims, Mexican refugees, isis victims? Do you want to covert India into a dharamsala?

@duster2019so if he doesn’t agree with your view of something. He’s not capable to be a civil servant? He’s akin to “leftist Hindu columnist” (your words not mine)?

@kochikaameI agree that population control is desirable, but we have bigger problem of female foeticide. Population control bill can make this situation complicated due to male preference in Indian society.

The question is not whether they are Islamic nations or not , but whether the country has any STATE RELIGION or not. Srilanka, Myanmar and Bhutan has laws privileging Buddhism officially(Practically Buddhist states). As a consequence the religious minorities(which include atheists and Jews who are not protected in the bill) in those are discriminated and persecuted.
The question is whether India should take all refugees or from some countries should be debated extensively in the parliament and not rammed down our throats by Hindu Nationalist government. The fact that they didnt even let this be debated properly or presented any date about religious persecution in those countries etc shows their arrogance and blatant disregard for the constitution while at the same time ranting about Vasudiava kutumbakam.

@ManchesterUnited
They are people being butchered. There is nothing wrong in giving asylum or refugee status. IF CAB/CAA has anything to do with giving protection to Persecuted religious minorities , then their claim should be firs considered. They are people like you and me.
Why do you care if Hardcore Islamic countries are giving or not ?(This question assumes that countries of same religion should help countries like them, which is itself a narrow parochial mindset, not a humanitarian modern progressive thinking) Always India should be model state not be compared with failed states/Religious states that privilege citizens of some religions over others.
