Up Population Control Bill

The Uttar Pradesh State Law Commission has submitted to Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath the draft population control bill and made a slew of recommendations

The Uttar Pradesh Law Commission has received over 8,000 suggestions from across the country, including southern states and Jammu and Kashmir, over a proposed draft Bill for population control, officials said today.

Opposition parties have hit out at the Uttar Pradesh government over the proposed draft bill on population control.

Local Samajwadi Party (SP) MP Shaqfiqur Rahman Barq has hit out at the state government, saying it should ban marriages if it wants to stabilise rising population.

Former Maharashtra chief minister Devendra Fadnavis on Sunday welcomed the Uttar Pradesh government's new population policy for 2021-2030 and said if needed, such a law should be formulated for the entire country.

According to a draft of the proposed population control bill, anyone violating two-child policy in UP will be barred from contesting local bodies polls, from applying for or getting promotion in government jobs, and receiving any kind of subsidy.
