The Chief Adviser further said meeting the demand of food, housing, education and health services would become harder while the environment and ecology would be endangered if the current population growth cannot be checked. The Chief Adviser said many countries in the world have reached the pinnacle of progress by keeping their population under control and utilizing it properly. "We also want to march towards the same goal by turning our population into human resources," he added. The population of the South Asian country is increasing by some 1.8 million every year with a growth of 1.43 percent, according to data released by the Health and Family Welfare Ministry.
