AIMIM's Asaduddin Owaisi Hits Out At RSS Chief Mohan Bhagwat's Call For 'Two-Child Policy'

All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) president Asaduddin Owaisi on Saturday launched a scathing attack on RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat’s call for implementation of two-child policy. Owaisi, who was addressing a public meeting in Nizamabad ahead of the Telangana Municipal elections, asked Bhagwat about the number of youths who have been given jobs in the country. AIMIM chief took jibe at the Modi government over lack of jobs saying 36 youths committed suicide per day in 2018 over employment issues.

Owaisi went on to add that more than 60 per cent of India’s population is below 40 years of age and said that the RSS chief won’t comment on these issues.

Earlier, Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) had said its next area of focus will be to seek policy intervention for the implementation of a two-child norm in the country.

“We have been advocating this for quite some time now and want that the country should have a policy on the number of children a couple can have. But then it is for the Centre to take a call and decide whether it wants to enact a law on the issue”, Bhagwat had said.

When asked about the country’s population, the Bhagwat said a policy to tackle the problem was the need of the hour.
