India News | Education Effective in Checking Population Rise, Says AIUDF MLA

Guwahati (Assam) [India], November 29 (ANI): All India United Democratic Front (AIUDF) general secretary and MLA Rafiqul Islam on Tuesday said that his party is not against any population control policy, and if people are educated and greater awareness is created, then population would be controlled automatically.

The AIUDF MLA said, "If you want to control the population in the country, the government should take initiatives such as education of people, creating awareness and providing good facilities. If you provide facilities to people, bring the backward class people (Adivasis, Minorities) forward, provide good education and health facilities, give them their rights, then population will be controlled."
