Religious norms and values is helping to increase population. Justify the statement.

We all are living in a society and following the some norms and values which are related to our religion called religious norms and values. Some religious norms and values are helping in population growth by giving importance on early marriage, Gender discrimination, etc.

In our society people are believing that if they will marriage their son and daughter in early age they will get chance to go in heaven after death and their practices leads toward the high birth rate which cause rapid population growth. Similarly they believe that son will make the parents future bright and help them to go in heaven after death so in the hope of giving birth to the son they are giving birth to  the many daughter. They believe that using the birth spacing, family planning are against the law of god and if will they use family planning  and birth spacing they will be punished by the god.

In our country poverty and backwardness is one of the major social problems and important factors of population growth. Due to poverty and backwardness people are very far from education. Due to that they are blindly believing on superstition believes.

They are believing that giving birth large number of children make their parents future bright and good sources of income. So the people are giving birth to the large number of children. It is difficult to the parents to give them proper education and fulfill their basic needs and demand. Parents have lode of more responsibility and to get free from that responsibilities they are marring their son and daughter in early age and their practices leads toward the high birth rate which causes rapid population growth. People are believing on this superstition believe due to lack of proper education which is caused by the poverty and backwardness.

So we can say that poverty and backwardness are also considered as the causes of rapid population change.

Population management is essential for development.

The proper distribution of people according to the natural resources is called population management. The process of bringing positive changes in environment or in any sector is called development. 

Population management is essential for development because due to unmanaged population people are facing so many problems such as poverty, unemployment, scarcity of food, scarcity of education, scarcity of health services, scarcity of food and housing etc. When people are facing like this problems they cannot participate in any developmental activities and there is no chances of development. But when population is managed then people will not face like these problems and they will easily participate in developmental works and there is possibility of sustainable development.

 

So, We can say that population management are essential for development.

 

Gender equality helps in population management. Justify this statement.

Giving equal priority to son and daughter is called gender equality. Yes, i agree with this statements that gender equality helps in population management. 

If there is mutual understanding between husband and wife then they can make the decision to give birth to number of child. They will not discriminate between son and daughter. In the hope of giving birth to the a single son they will not give birth to many daughter. And it will decrease the high birth rate which helps in population management.

So, we can say gender equality helps in population management.
