Slide 24:Population, if continues to increase at the same rate, it will destroy the country. Lack of initiative by the govt. Together with sleeping people of India are responsible for this destructive problem. People are not realizing the problem. One day the result will be riots, fighting over food, water. India will be the largest slums creater. I think after 20 years, India will not be the place to live.
