why this Bill?

its because there were limited ecological and economic resources at hand in UP and it was necessary to control and stabilise the population for the promotion of sustainable development with more equitable distribution.

My Opinion on this Draft:-

 In my opinion, UP does not need any two-child policy in up fertility rate is high there need rapid development of education health care facilities economic development there for the automatic fall in fertility rate. this is difficult to that's why a politician would not admit this they would want to look for shortcuts to name somebody or to bring in a law. here only the counter effect developed with poor people.
