>a growing population is good for a developing country.
Do you not see our current state? Every problem is caused by overpopulation.
Also,
At that time india was already populated (540 million) too much and growing at alarming rate. International pressure was on Indira Gandhi who was most ballsy(more than men) leader/dictator of India. Officials were given target to force vasectomy on 8 million men. Many cases of deaths, coercion, bitches surgeries without any proper medical procedures. Public was outraged and she lost elections. Even after this, it only affected like 1% of population growth rate.
