BHUBANESWAR: After the implementation of the population control policy in 2001, TFR of population growth or the average fertility rate of couples has decreased from 3.4 to 1.9. But there are many imbalances in this population control. This is because the fertility rate of couples belonging to different religious communities varies significantly and other factors are, the increase in infiltration in border areas and unlawful religious conversions in various places.
