Which law prevents Hindus from having more children, asks Mohan Bhagwat

AGRA: While addressing a large gathering of university and college teachers in Agra on Saturday, Rashtraiya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat said that to improve the current education system we have to change our attitude towards it. "We need to change ourselves in order to change the society at large. If we want to improve our education system, we have to change ourselves first," Bhagwat said at an event organised by the RSS. While answering a question on the alleged rising growth rate of the Muslim population in India,  Bhagwat said that there is no law in the country that prevents Hindus from having more children. “Is there any law that prevents you [Hindus] from growing their population. If their population is increasing then why your numbers are not growing?” the 65-year-old RSS leader said. "This is not the question of system but of society. These decisions are personal and they need to be taken keeping all three, personal, family and national interest in mind," he added. On suggestions and concerns raised by the teaches, RSS chief said that he will convey their messages to the education ministry or they, on their own, can send a detailed letter to the Union Education minister.
