Senate Treasury Secretary [ Steven Mnuchin], Senate Majority Leader [ Mitch McConnell] and  [https://tarvelzone.hpage.com/top-15-biggest-city-in-india-by-population.html https://tarvelzone.hpage.com/top-15-biggest-city-in-india-by-population.html] Sen. [ Roy Blunt] all say we'll know more this month. July is 31 days long, however, and the Senate is on its [/news/the-best-july-4th-sales-happening-right-now/ Fourth of July] recess for much of the month. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;But we can pick out a narrow time frame when Congress could give [/news/second-stimulus-check-from-the-irs-would-you-qualify-the-story-so-far/ a new stimulus check] the green light, based on the Senate's calendar, which includes two lengthy summer recesses when senators will be in their home states. We also worked out a possible time when the IRS might be able to send the first batch of new checks, if they're approved. Read on for what we know.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;CNET Coronavirus Update &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Keep track of the coronavirus pandemic.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;This story updates frequently with new information. If you're still waiting on the first round, you can [/news/can-i-track-my-stimulus-check-status-heres-how-to-use-the-free-irs-app/ track the status of your stimulus check], see some possible [/news/wheres-your-stimulus-check-10-reasons-its-delayed-and-what-you-can-do-about-it/ reasons why you don't have a check yet] and learn [/news/when-and-how-should-you-report-your-no-show-stimulus-check-to-the-irs/ how to report a missing stimulus check to the IRS].&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Congress is expected to start work soon on a new coronavirus stimulus bill that may put another $1,200 in your wallet.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Angela Lang/CNET&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;	 	 	 	 	Stimulus check timeline: These dates matter&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;          &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Let's start with the firmest promise we've heard about the stimulus check decision so far, which came from McConnell [ in a June 30 briefing]. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;quot;We're going to stay on the schedule that I announced earlier in the year. We will not be here in August,&amp;quot; McConnell said. He's also warned that [ the next relief package will also be the last].&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;If the Senate sticks to that goal -- to make a decision on another stimulus package before August -- then we can tease out the basic timeframe Congress has to work with if another rescue bill containing checks is to get approved.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;July 3 to July 17: The Senate takes a [ planned recess] from Friday, July 3, through Friday, July 17, returning to work on Monday, July 20.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;According to Blunt, members of the Senate will use the July break to collect the information they need for a second [ coronavirus] package and then return ready to work. &amp;quot;I think the timing is going to be just about right for us to know what we need to know for a package that moves us into August, September and October,&amp;quot; [ Blunt said] Tuesday.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;July 20 to Aug. 7: The Senate will be in session for three work weeks, until Friday, Aug. 7. That gives the Senate 15 work days (not including weekends) to debate a bill before its next summer recess.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Now playing:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Watch this:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Haven't received your stimulus check yet? Let's track...&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;1:33&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Aug. 10 to Sept. 7: The Senate will be on its  [ August recess], which lasts through Labor Day (Monday, Sept. 7). There are 32 days from the last date of the Senate session (Aug. 7) until the first day of the following session (Sept. 8). The Senate won't work through the August break, [ McConnell said Tuesday].&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;If the Senate does take up a second stimulus package in July, a new bill authorizing the checks would need to pass both chambers on or before Friday, Aug. 7, to get through prior to the Senate's August break.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Sept. 8 to Sept. 25: The Senate is back in session. If Congress doesn't complete the stimulus package by the start of the August break, it would need to resume in September. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;  	When could the IRS send a second stimulus payment? &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;  &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;If the House and Senate do give a second round of stimulus checks the green light, it's not out of  the question that the checks could start to be sent out by the  IRS in August. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;It's time to hash out the numbers.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Sarah Tew/CNET&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;For reference, the president signed the [ CARES Act] into law on  March 27 and the first stimulus payments went out less than three  weeks later, on April 15. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;For the purpose of speculation only, let's say that a new stimulus act becomes law on Friday, Aug. 7. Following the CARES Act timeline, the first checks could go out by Aug. 26.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;It's plausible, however, that the IRS could move even faster to send out the [/news/stimulus-check-eligibility-update-status-amount-everything-to-know-about-the-irs-payment/ first wave of stimulus checks], since it already has the mechanism in place from the first batch, including a tool for people to [/news/its-too-late-to-direct-deposit-your-stimulus-check-heres-what-happens-now/ sign up for direct deposit] and [/news/if-you-havent-tracked-your-stimulus-check-heres-how-to-do-it-online/ track their payments]. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Factors like how many people would qualify for a payment the second time around could play a role in slowing down or speeding up this timeline.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt; 	What's the final date I could receive a second stimulus check? &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;A second stimulus bill could be the last for Americans affected by the coronavirus pandemic.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Angela Lang/CNET&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;While we don't know anything official -- and won't until another rescue package is official -- we can draw on the experience of the first stimulus checks as a potential blueprint. The IRS will have sent about 200 million checks by the time it's done distributing payments. (The total US population is [ nearly 330 million people], according to the Census Bureau.) &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;At the beginning of June, the [ House Ways and Means Committee estimated] (PDF) as many as 35 million Americans could still be owed a payment. The IRS will continue to disburse the final batches through the end of the year. If there are [/news/stimulus-check-round-2-who-might-qualify-for-a-second-payment-its-complicated/ fewer people receiving a second stimulus check], however, it's possible that it won't take as long to send a second round of checks. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;If you didn't get your money yet, [/news/wheres-my-stimulus-check-10-reasons-you-dont-yet-have-your-payment/ here are 10 possible reasons for a delay]. If you're worried you were supposed to receive your check and didn't, [/news/what-happens-if-your-stimulus-check-is-a-no-show-heres-what-you-can-do-now/ here's what you can do].  &amp;lt;br&amp;gt; 	Do we still need a second stimulus check? The unemployment debate heats up&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;          &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Is a second stimulus check necessary? That question is at the heart of this debate.  &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;quot;The path forward for the economy remains extraordinarily uncertain and will depend in large part on our success in [/news/coronavirus-vaccine-how-close-are-we-to-finding-one-heres-whats-happening/ containing the virus],&amp;quot; [ said Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell] during House testimony on Tuesday. &amp;quot;The path forward will also depend on policy actions taken at all levels of government to provide relief and to support the recovery for as long as needed.&amp;quot; &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Weekly jobless claims continue to show a US economy struggling to find its footing. For the week ending June 27, 1.42 million workers filed first-time jobless claims, making 15 straight weeks new claims were over 1 million, [ the Labor Department reported] (PDF). Initial claims were down slightly from the 1.48 million of the week before.  &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;A [ June study] (PDF) by the Center on Poverty and Social Policy at Columbia University  advanced that without the stimulus money, America's poverty level could  have spiked from 12.5% before the pandemic to 16.3% today.   &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;The center [ predicted],  &amp;quot;If high unemployment rates persist beyond July 2020, additional income  support will be needed&amp;quot; to keep poverty from soaring during the [/news/a-second-wave-of-coronavirus-is-it-here-how-long-it-could-last-and-more/ ongoing coronavirus pandemic]. The study also notes the categories of people who aren't eligible to receive the funds authorized by the [ CARES Act] and that some eligible families are facing roadblocks receiving their benefits. The [/news/coronavirus-unemployment-furlough-payments-applying-more/ expanded unemployment benefits] keeping some afloat are set to [/news/enhanced-unemployment-ends-july-31-what-does-that-mean-for-you/ expire at the end of July].&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Even with some businesses starting to open, the US has a staggeringly high unemployment rate.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Angela Lang/CNET&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	What will it take to get a second stimulus check and what happens now?          &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;The passage of a second round of IRS payments appears to depend on two things: [/news/the-coronavirus-recession-is-real-what-that-means-for-2020-and-how-to-prepare/ how badly the economy is faring] and if lawmakers believe a direct payment to millions of people is the best way to respond to the [/news/the-coronavirus-recession-is-real-what-that-means-for-2020-and-how-to-prepare/ current recession].  &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;For now, we wait till the Senate returns from its July recess to take up the next stimulus package. To receive a second check, the proposed rescue package would need to pass both the House and the Senate before receiving a signature from the president. Only then could it take effect.  &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;After that, the IRS now has a system in place to organize and distribute those checks. But it could still be weeks more before you receive a payment.        &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;We'll continue to update this story with new information as it arises. While the future of a second stimulus bill remains undecided, we'll share available resources about [/news/coronavirus-hardship-loans-what-they-are-how-they-work-and-how-to-get-one/ coronavirus hardship loans] and [/news/coronavirus-unemployment-furlough-payments-applying-more/ unemployment insurance], [/news/you-lost-your-job-because-of-coronavirus-these-resources-can-help/ what you can do if you've lost your job], [/news/july-rent-is-due-whats-going-on-with-freezes-coronavirus-relief-and-evictions/ what to know about evictions] and [/news/how-late-can-you-be-on-your-car-payment-what-to-do-if-you-cant-pay-your-bills/ late car payments] and how to [/news/how-to-master-your-2020-budget/ take control of your budget].          &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Coronavirus updates&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;[/health/activities-ranked-from-highest-to-lowest-exposure-risk-to-covid-19/ How safe is it to fly? 10 activities that can spread coronavirus, ranked]&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;[/health/track-covid-19-risk-in-your-county-with-harvards-assessment-map/ Track COVID-19 risk in your county with Harvard's new map]&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;[/how-to/bored-at-home-streaming-concerts-virtual-classes-and-6-other-ways-to-stay-connected-update/ Beat boredom: Try these socially distanced activities over 4th of July]&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;[ ]&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;[#comments  Comments]&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;[/personal-finance/budgeting/ Budgeting]&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;[/topics/politics/ Politics]&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;[/coronavirus/ Coronavirus]&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;[  Notification on Notification off How to]&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;id=&amp;quot;mod_38342597&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;[ ]&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;[ ]&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;India's Population&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Every year India adds more people than any other country in the world - about 18 million, much larger than about 7 million in China. Some of its populous states have more people than many large countries: For instance, the most populous state, Uttar Pradesh, with about 199 million people compares with Brazil and the next most populous Maharashtra (112 million) and Bihar (104 million) rub shoulders with Mexico (112 million) and Germany (82 million).&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Everything is big when it comes to population in India: 26 million children are born every year (Australian population is about 22.6 million), of which 1.83 million die within their 5th birthday out of which one-sixth die within 24 hours of birth. After accounting for other deaths about 18 million people are added each year.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Of the current population of about 1.25 billion, 50% are below 25 and 65% below 35. According to a recent UN report, India's population will surpass China in 2028 when both countries will have 1.45 billion people each. It is quite conceivable that no other country will ever cross the 1 billion mark in the future.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;In 1980s Indian planners aimed to achieve the replacement fertility rate of 2.1 by 2000 but failed. So. they came up with a new National Population Policy (NPP) in 2000 aiming to reach the target by 2010. But again failed and could only reach 2.8. Alongside, they also introduced the idea of &amp;quot;Two-Child Norm&amp;quot; to encourage parents to limit their families to two children. It created disadvantages for couples with more than two children, such as disqualification from Panchayat Institutions' positions; denial of certain public services and government welfare programs, including maternal and child health programs. But there is no indication that the policy made any significant difference, except disqualifying some female Panchayat heads for ignoring this rule (which actually negates the efforts of women empowerment).&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;The net result of all these efforts is that today the total fertility rate is around 2.5, still away from the golden target of 2.1 which ultimately leads to population stabilization.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Steady Decrease in Birth &amp;amp; Death Rates&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Family Planning in India&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;The family planning initiatives in India have traditionally revolved around only one thing - female sterilization. The policymakers sitting in New Delhi or in State capitals set targets of number of sterilizations and the bureaucrats galvanize the state machinery to set up sterilization camps to achieve the goals. All may be well on papers but ground reality of both the implementation and the ossified thinking that &amp;quot;population control only means female sterilization&amp;quot; betray the changed demographic realities of India.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Ground level health workers know &amp;quot;how these numbers are gathered&amp;quot; and targets achieved. Bureaucrats are, of course, unconcerned as long as they are given reports of targets met. They also don't bother to stop and think &amp;quot;Why female sterilization and sterilization camps should be the only solutions to check population growth?&amp;quot;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Let us examine what the demographic indicators are saying loudly and why the over-hyped female sterilization is not the correct solution to manage Indian population.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Changed Demographic Realities of India&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;A. Young India&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;India is at an important stage of demographic transition. Look at the following figures:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Almost 40% of Indiansare younger than 15 years of age,&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Over 50% of its population below the age of 25, and&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Over 65% hover below the age of 35.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;It is expected that, in 2020, the average age of an Indian will be 29 years, compared to 37 for China and 48 for Japan. By 2030, India's dependency ratio should be just over 0.4. Dependency ratio is nothing but total number of people who normally don't work (below 15 and above 64) divided by those in the productive work force (age group of 15 - 64).&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;The large proportion of people in the reproductive age-group needs a range of contraception options; the permanent pregnancy termination through sterilization is not suitable for them.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;B. Why is population still Increasing when the average family size is Decreasing?&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;In 1950s, the average number of children a woman had in her life time (called Total Fertility Rate (TFR)) was about six; now it is about 2.5 and in many Indian States it is less than 2. Yet, the population continues to grow.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;India continues to add about 18 million people per year because over 50% population is in the reproductive age group. It is this large base of young reproductive people that imparts momentum to the population growth. So, the population growth is momentum driven.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Throughout the world, the importance of momentum driven population growth has increased as fertility levels have declined. In 1994, John Bongaarts estimated that population growth due to momentum could account for nearly half of world population increase during the twenty-first century. He pointed out that this momentum driven population growth could be reduced simply by raising the average age of childbearing. He further estimated that a 2.5 year increase in age at first birth would reduce population growth momentum by 21%.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Therefore, the correct ways to check population momentum are by delaying marriage, postponing child bearing, and spacing births. In brief: by delaying all pregnancies.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;C. Where is the Real Problem?&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;	&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;		Fertility Level (TFR)&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;		Indian States&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;		TFR below 2.1 (10 States with 35% India's Population) &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;		Andhra Pradesh, Delhi, Goa, Himachal Pradesh, Karnataka, Kerala, Maharashtra, Punjab, Sikkim, Tamil Nadu&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;		TFR between 2.1 and 2.4 (6 States with 20% India's Population) &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;		Assam, Gujrat, Jammu &amp;amp; Kashmir, Orissa, Tripura, West Bengal&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;		TFR between 2.5 and 3.6 (9 States with 19% India's Population) &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;		Arunachal Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Haryana, Jharkhand, Madhya Pradesh, Manipur, Mizoram, Rajasthan, Uttarakhand&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;		TFR above 3.6 (4 States with 25% India's Population) &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;		Bihar, Meghalya, Nagaland, Uttar Pradesh&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;	&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;	&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Five states - Bihar, MP, UP, Rajasthan and Orissa - with 44% of India's population will contribute 55% of population growth up to 2016. Performance of these states will be the decisive factor in the efforts of population stabilization. Family planning initiatives in these states need particular attention in order to bring down the national average TFR.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;India should Focus on Five States with Higher Growth&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Why focusing only on female sterilization and sterilization camps are bad?&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Making only females responsible for family size is nothing but a gender bias. Males should also be made equally responsible for fertility and child care related activities. Gender bias apart, there are other compelling reasons why focus on permanent sterilization method is a wrong prescription to check population growth.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;1. When sterilization is the only available method to prevent pregnancy, it leads to several distortions. For example, people tend to go for quick pregnancies before sterilization. This actually adds to population momentum which is the prime cause of population growth. Reducing population momentum demands delaying pregnancies.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;2. Experts advice against female sterilization below the age of 27 because it leads to higher complication and failure rates. NFHS - 3 data clearly indicate that most of the sterilizations are done at younger age - sometimes as young as 20 year or even younger. Moreover, female sterilization also increases the risks of hysterectomy by four times. Therefore, heavy dependence on sterilization is not only putting young women to future health risks, but also depriving them of other contraceptive choices - better suited to their needs.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;3. Encouraging sterilization camps is bad for two reasons: One, it encourages government bureaucrats to adopt coercive means to get people to the camp, neglecting proper screening for the sterilization operation. Second, camp conditions badly compromise quality of healthcare. Women also need pre- and post-operative care which is rarely provided. A lot of NGOs and other organizations familiar with the realities of camps even question the quality of operative conditions of the camp. They mention that most sterilization camps become active only during November to March, with the accompanying mania to meet the targeted numbers. Some activists even report death during or after such operations; fortunately such incidents rare but are fully preventable with proper care.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;For Population Planners&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Researcher Visaria applied Bongaart's model of population growth and calculated the contribution of different factors in India's population growth up to 2101 - about 70% growth would come from momentum, about 24% from unwanted fertility, and only 6% from wanted fertility.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Indian population planners should understand and discuss these numbers thoroughly then decide where to put their resources and energy for best results. Their understanding is still based on the outdated [ ] of 1798. As a result, their 100% attention is still focused on eliminating wanted fertility that contributes just 6% to population growth! Not a sane idea, in 21st century.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;[ ]&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;What do you Think?Which is the Best form of long term Population Management? Flooding the market with contraceptives Women Empowerment Telling kids about sex[# See results]&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;What should the Indian Government do?&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;quot;You can solve the problem only if you understand it.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;This is the age old wisdom that applies everywhere; but perhaps not known to the population planners in India&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Family planning bureaucrats primarily need reeducation about the changed population dynamics of today's India. Most officials are still obsessed by the sterilization focused model of population management, which they try achieving through predefined targets of sterilizations. They need to understand two things clearly: the concept of population momentum and the unmet need for contraceptives.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;As pointed out earlier, the dominant cause of current population growth is population momentum as shown by demographer Bongaart in the nineties. By applying his model, Indian population experts suggest that in India 70 percent growth might be coming from population momentum, 24 percent from unwanted fertility, and only 6 percent from wanted fertility.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;This analysis provides useful directions to Indian population planners in terms of where to focus resources and energy for best results. Their traditional obsession with sterilization as the primary tool for birth control puts them focusing all their energies in eliminating wanted fertility that contributes just 6% to population growth!&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;In fact, the current realities demand that the family planning battle is fought not in the sterilization clinics but on the social plain. The fight against population momentum which is the leading cause of current population growth, demands delaying all pregnancies. It provides three clear strategies:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;1. Discourage and prevent child marriages.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;2. Encourage postponing first pregnancy by two years after marriage&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;3. Increase availability of contraceptives for spacing births&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;The next dominant cause is unwanted and unplanned pregnancies, measured as &amp;quot;unmet need&amp;quot; for contraceptives. Almost a quarter births (450 million annually) take place simply because contraceptives are easily available particularly in rural areas. Condom awareness campaign should not be limited to HIV and STD prevention only. The young reproductive population needs range of contraceptive choices to prevent pregnancies more than the one time sterilization option.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Additionally, the following steps would also go a long way in rationalizing the family planning activities in the country:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Strengthen the family planning healthcare system so that people get complete knowledge of possible contraceptive methods including IUCDs, pills, etc and turn sterilization into just one among other options.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;If at all incentives have to be given, they should go to the people availing services and never to the bureaucrats in any form.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Allow sterilization camps only by NGOs and social civil organizations with complete freedom about pre- and post-operative care and camp duration.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Monitor the quality of family planning healthcare through a set of quality parameters, as oppose to the current fashion of counting sterilization numbers.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;[ ]; counselling on these issues should be included into programs designed for rural areas.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Religion and Babies !!&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Acknowledgement&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;This article is inspired by the one day roundtable held in New Delhi (Jan, 2011) on &amp;quot;Population and family Planning: Contemporary Challenges &amp;amp; Opportunities&amp;quot;, organized by the National Coalition on Population Stabilization, Family Planning &amp;amp; Reproductive Rights.

Here are three ideas not mentioned in the article.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;1. Migrate people from India to other countries who have social values which help limit population (delaying pregnancy, having fewer children, etc.)&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;2. Have the males donate to a sperm bank and get a Vasectomy. This preserves the ability to have children later based on thinking and planning, not just on lust. The women pick the man with whom to deliberately have children.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;3. Separate men from women such as separate housing and work places.
