Vice President M. Venkaiah Naidu on Thursday cautioned that development challenges will become more difficult to resolve as the population increases. Naidu stressed the need for family planning and asked political parties and public representatives to focus on this vital issue and educate the people.
He was addressing a gathering virtually after releasing two reports: 'Status of Sex Ratio at Birth in India' and 'Elderly Population in India: Status and Support Systems', brought out by the Indian Association of Parliamentarians for Population and Development (IAPPD) in the national capital.
