Ludhiana, July 11, 2017 (Online News Ludhiana): Helen Keller has rightly said, “Once it was necessary that the people should multiply and fruitful if the race was to survive. But now to preserve the race it is necessary that people hold back the power of propagation”. World Population Day is an annual event observed on July 11 every year to raise awareness of global population issues.
Variety of activities and events are organized on international level to draw attention of mass people to work together on the issues of growing population.
