Q. If you were the Prime Minister of India, what would be the one problem that you would solve. Please explain your reasons.
What you will read next may seem absurd. It isn't.
It can be easily proved that the root cause of all problems of India is over population. Yes, it is. And hence, it may sound rather silly that I am not talking about solving the problem of corruption, farmer suicide, education, cleanliness, peace, GDP, security, food or water. The best way to touch upon all these problems and resolve them for good is to control population in India. It is a long term goal, a drastic measure and not politically correct. Nonetheless, it is the most effective way out today.
