people to thrive in the society
3. Problem
India - The social problem of over population resulted various other problems of
which mainly poverty and unemployment. This further creates other social
problems like illiteracy, crimes, etc.
We might have heard the statement - When we think of ‘over 1 million mouth to
feed’ is a liability, but when we think of ‘2 millions hands to work’ it becomes an
asset. All we need to do is, instead of seeing population as an liability, we can
make it an asset by guiding them in right path by enabling them with skills and
platform for them to thrive and produce!
