The scary effects of population growth

Population is very harmfull

When the doomsday of Pakistan came in 1947, the total population of this country was 75 million. Out of which 35 million population lived in present day West Pakistan. The current population of Pakistan is estimated to be around 220 million. This high rate of population density is shocking. Has happened All our efforts to develop resources and produce more food have been thwarted by this unbridled and rapid population growth. The problem of overpopulation is proving to be a major obstacle to the fulfillment of our dream of a happy and prosperous Pakistan. Now they have become cities and villages have become towns. These towns and cities have usurped our fertile agricultural lands. Most of the forests have been cut down due to pressure and unavailability of houses and settlements. There is a lack of adequate facilities for all the people living in these sprawling cities and towns. Water supply is inadequate. Drainage management is poor. The traffic was light at this time of night. Schools and hospitals are overcrowded. Fields, gardens and amusement parks are just a few. There is no reasonable system for disposal of factory waste in our country. As a result, the water we drink is contaminated. And the wind in which we breathe. It has become poisonous. Indiscriminate deforestation has resulted in the destruction of wildlife. Many species of animals have been wiped out. Due to the growing population, it has not been possible to provide adequate facilities for educating children. The result is that very few of them are getting an education. 80% of our people are illiterate. All efforts to increase literacy rates are proving futile. The same is true of efforts to provide health care to the people. It is not possible to deliver. Due to the limited productivity of the lost factories and the productive gains of our agricultural lands, we are not able to provide food and other necessities of life to the millions of our growing population. Food prices are rising. Our power generation capacity is far below our demand. When it comes to supplying electricity to homes and factories, we are often forced to face load shedding. Population growth has increased unemployment. Many of our young doctors, engineers and respirators do not have jobs. Almost half of our population does not have a job. The question is where such a large population will have access to employment, food, health, education, etc. The evacuation of the population from the countryside has filled the cities with human beings. Traffic jams, environmental degradation, lack of water are the hallmarks of this. Sadly, the majority of our people are unaware of this terrible danger. In a country where the population is close to half and the poverty line is below that, it is a joke to talk about the population. The whole struggle of these four is limited to getting one time bread. If not found, then the famine of that day, these extremely poor people consider having more children as the only solution to avoid famine. That is why the World Bank has pointed out that due to severe food shortages, Pakistan's children, boys and girls have become smaller. Along with physical development, their mental development has also stopped. Guess this is the generation that has to build the future of Pakistan. The result is serious illness and death at an early age. The rest of the survivors, due to poverty, fall into the hands of terrorists and become the raw material of terrorism. We still have no shortage of naive people who support population growth. The United States, Europe, on the other hand, is steadily declining its population with public awareness. We have now entered this age. Where wars are fought by robots not humans. That too with the stroke of a finger, for him the only nation that will be superior in the world will be the expert in the highest technology in science. As in ancient times, the human race is no longer needed. Through which nations have made their survival possible in the past. If human beings start producing children like animals, then what will be the difference between human beings and animals? In the last few years, the supremacy of the Western nations has been made possible by the fact that they have outpaced the Muslims in inventing military technology. This is the key to the success of a democratic and political system. It is directly related to economic stability. An economic s

tability that is in the interest of the common man or the poor. Otherwise, neither economic stability nor the process of injustice or segregation will actually lead to the failure of the political and democratic system. One of the major challenges is the rural economy which is suffering from malnutrition and the entire burden is on the urban economy. Most deprived people including widows, people with disabilities, gypsies, orphans, the poor, street children, eunuchs, but here even the middle class is stuck in a system based on poverty. امیری ا
