THE Uttar Pradesh State Law Commission is focussed on the stabilisation and welfare of the state’s population and has drafted The Uttar Pradesh Population (Control, Stabilization and Welfare) Bill, 2021, which includes incentives for those following the two-child norm and disincentives for those who violate the policy.
The Bill says: “In Uttar Pradesh, there are limited ecological and economic resources at hand. It is necessary and urgent that the provision of basic necessities of human life, including affordable food, safe drinking water, decent housing, access to quality education, economic/livelihood opportunities, power/electricity for domestic consumption, and a secure living is accessible to all citizens.” It further says: “It is necessary to control, stabilise the population of the state for promotion of sustainable development with more equitable distribution. It is necessary to provide for measures to control, stabilise and provide welfare to the population of the State by implementation and promotion of two-child norm per eligible couple in the State by means of incentives and disincentive”.
Under the Bill, the government employees following the two-child policy will be eligible for incentives, such as:
(a) Two additional increments during the entire service.
(b) Subsidy for purchasing a plot or house site or built house from housing board or development authority, as may be prescribed.
(c) Soft loans for construction or purchasing a house on nominal rates of interest, as may be prescribed.
(d) Rebate on charges for utilities such as water, electricity, house tax, as may be prescribed.
(e) Maternity or as the case may be, paternity leave of 12 months, with full salary and allowances.

Ignorance of law is no excuse. Here are answers to frequently asked queries regarding matters that affect us on a day-to-day basis
The Big Lie
In America, The Big Lie is an idiom used by Donald Trump's opponents and the media to describe his constant gripe about election fraud.

Walkouts in the UK
An estimated half a million workers have gone on strike, shutting down thousands of schools, public transport and border disruption. It is the biggest day of industrial action for more than a decade.
Myanmar's Misery
Two years after the military coup ousted the elected government led by Aung San Suu Kyi, the brutal crackdown by the junta on so-called \"insurgents\" and civilian protesters has reached a new level with the use of air strikes, a new and deadly tactic in the ongoing civil war.
AMERICA'S ANGST
From messy, divisive politics to a series of mass shootings, and now black officers brutally beating another black man to death as seen in bodycam videos, America's domestic convulsions are cause for serious introspection
JUSTICE LEAGUE
There are few judicial appointment procedures in the world that are completely bereft of the overarching presence of either the executive or the legislature, or both. In the end, the judge is left with all the powers vested in him/her by the constitution to uphold the rule of law, within an atmosphere of external influences
