Watch: Why NDA ally Nitish Kumar differs with BJP's population control push

Bihar chief minister Nitish Kumar said that educating women will control unchecked population growth. Kumar added that he was not in favour of bringing in laws to achieve the end. "Look at China. It first came out with a one-child norm. Then allowed two children. Now there is a rethink on even that," he said. “My opinion is very clear that population control can't be attained by just making laws. When women will be educated they will become more conscious and the fertility rate will decrease,” said Kumar. Nitish’s remarks come after UP chief minister Yogi Adityanath launched a new population policy for his state. Watch the full video for more.
