India is a subcontinent in the continent of of Asia

All problems in India would affect the rest of Asia and the Earth. All the skies are connected and all oceans are connected. Air pollution from India would spread to rest of world as air cannot be contained. Dumping of waste and pollution in the ocean would spread to Indian Ocean then Pacific and Atlantic oceans too.Then what would happen? Till desertification of India, waters of India would pollute the ocean. But the dust from India would rise and spread to other parts of Asia and oceans. Similar situation in other parts of world would affect India too. Its not one country that has eco- catastrophe, but whole Earth has similar problems. Health of future generations of humans is affected. Idealistic view looks good, can this be the future

We cannot undo industrialization

Thermal power plants contribute to air pollution greatly.By burning coal, electricity is generated by thermal plants. And we need more and more electricity and therefore more and more air pollution is generated. As civilization progresses, quality of life suffers. Lives are shortened. Citizens die early and therefore cannot contribute to growth of the nation.The sick citizen or the dead citizen  cannot give taxes for the growth of the nation
So state must reduce the size of cities effectively. Stop using fossil fuel for generation of electricity. We must encourage solar powered vehicles. And generating electricity from coal must be stopped paving way for solar powered electricity. But such generation can take place only about 50 years from now. So for next fifty years, pollution and more pollution. People develop lung related aliments and die early.So there is no need for programs on population control. pollution will control population. Its may end human life in India unless one uses oxygen cylinders. Agriculture as we know it uses ground water. Level of ground water table is reduced because of not being recharged.Himalayan Glaciers like Yamunotri and Gangotri would get melted at faster rate than they are made. So desertification is certain.

To curb stubble burning in rural India

The biggest cause of  pollution is burning of farm waste. Because of lack of farm labor, farm wastes could not be collected and carted away. Government tried to impose fines on farmers who burn wastes. But nobody admits burning farm waste."we do not know who burned it" is the answer from farmers. Farmers can bury the waste and turn it into manure.
How can fining farmers help? As it is farmers survive by subsidies from government.
Supreme Court told the state government of Punjab that pollution is coming from the farms which are in Punjab(satellites show that). And that Punjab government  its a useless government if it cannot control pollution. Now its pinned on the Punjab government. Haryana government should be told this also. Solution shroud be found, blame game wont help. May be robots could be used as farm labor. to uproot stubble collect farm waste and bury waste Small robots circular ones(one foot in diameter) with spider like legs have been used to remove stubble As rural unemployment scheme guarantees benefits to the unemployed, the poor rural do not work and take the free benefits.
Only way to solve the labor problems is to industrialize farming very fast. No farm labor is available.
And why no labor is available? As there is unemployment scheme, labor can meet basic needs using the scheme, without working. We  cannot undo the scheme, as we have made with great difficulty with individual Aadhar card or bio metric card. So industrialization is the only way out. Tractors will need diesel which pollutes air and soil. More pollution, more industrialization. And march of civilization cannot be stopped
As time rolls on, pollutants harm the health of the people negatively.

Big cities in India have big problems

Pollution is a big problem. Air is basic need to stay alive and urban India suffers because we cannot give that basic to urban citizens. With development came cars, buses, trucks and factories. And all generated pollution. Even "stubble burning" air from rural area drifts and pollutes the air in urban India. There is no escape.
Water is the next need. With rising urban population, water could not be provided to all. And the poor suffer. They manage with few buckets of water. Because paying jobs in rural India, migration to urban area is greatly increasing.
Health hazards from communicable diseases is very high in urban areas.in urban areas, diseases spread fast/
Road accidents are very common as few observe speed limits. People drive fast ignoring the rights of the pedestrians.
Crime increases in urban area as there is lot of gap between the poor and the rich. And needs of the common man is not met with the high cost of living.
With all these problem, the longevity of life decreases. Polluted air,scarce water for the poor,omnipresence of diseases, road accidents and high crime rates make the urban life a big struggle. Longevity of urban people is reduced. There is no need for population control programs as people have untimely deaths. The. state of urban areas keeps populations lower than if we had an efficient government

Poor roads and bad drainage systems are health hazards

Roads are in bad conditions in India.Roads with pot holes or unpaved roads could have been fine for bullock carts, but for modern transport they are now inadequate. Two wheel scooters or three wheel auto rickshaws or cards or buses cannot ply on uneven roads. If they use these roads, they could easily get into accidents. And they thus are killer roads.Population is kept under control, may be. Using mobile phones while riding or driving again causes road accidents. So modernization means more accidents.
 Often in small towns and villages, drainage system have open drains which propagate mosquitoes. A whole range of diseases are caused by mosquitoes. Flies spread more diseases. Common citizen spends much money combating diseases. And life of the citizen is reduced by diseases. Government cannot get taxes from citizens with short lives. 
First proper roads are needed and drainage systems have to be developed. Otherwise people continue to have unhealthy short lives

Govenmant's Budget planning


Budget planning by government has been announced, But the plight of the people who do not have permanent job, is deplorable. On daily wages billions of people work. Even education cannot take them out of poverty. Educated persons cannot get jobs and have to work as daily wage earners. Its all very sad. All the planning done and the taxes proposed are not meaningful to the masses.
General view is that population is high. But here is no increase in population. There are as many living as before. People are producing only as many as the demise of the elderly. The quality of life has not risen As expected. The fact that India produces for for all and procures food and grains for export, is an index which shows the rise of rate of production.So there has been much improvement. People do enjoy a better standard of living, as there is variety in foods.Textile industry provides clothing for all at affordable prices. Housing is better, water and electricity is available to almost all
