Answer:
Population Growth In India: India is the second highest populous country in the world. The population of our country has already crossed billions. The population growth has been extremely rapid in the last 50 years.
The phenomenal growth is now more appropriately termed as “population explosion”.
There are various social-economic causes for the high growth of population. Main factors affecting population growth are the birth rate, fertility rate and control over death rate that have drastically changed due to new technologies in medical sciences.
The social issues that affect population growth are religious beliefs; poverty and ignorance which lead to high population growth. Illiteracy is the other main cause of population growth.

In some cases, it is also a major issue for males to use birth control measures as it is against their image and male ego.
