China's draconian but necessary one child policy has succeeded in preventing a massive expansion in the population of the most populous country on earth.
India will soon surpass China in population. It seems unlikely, though, that India's government has the ability to adopt a similar measure. But they will soon face the same bleak prospect that China faced before the one child policy. It's hard to imagine what other solution exists to prevent the resource shortages they will soon face.

India's population will begin to level off once they modernize and industrialize. Industrialized nations do not have this problem because of the availability of birth control and other factors.

It may not level off soon enough. I think China's one child policy is too draconian. But a two child policy may be appropriate. Haven't Japan and Vietnam had a two child policy for some time?

Sterilization DOES WORK!!! Smarty.
The workable solution is forced sterilization at two children.
Oh, I know, that threatens what most men consider their manhood. But, there is NOTHING manly about causing the suffering brought on by overpopulation.
