After Assam and UP, RSS since long has been suggesting introducing a population control policy in Uttarakhand, the Pushkar Singh Dhami government on Saturday issued instructions for the setting up of a committee for the same. Chief secretary SS Sandhu will head the panel. 

As many as 35 affiliates of the Sangh called for ensuring a “demographic balance” in the hill states during a coordination meeting held recently. Claiming that there has been a substantial rise in the Muslim population in areas like Dehradun, Haridwar, Udham Singh Nagar, and Nainital over the years, the leaders sought appropriate measures in this regard. 

The meeting held in Dehradun last Wednesday was attended by BJP national general secretary (organization) BL Santhosh, state unit chief Madan Kaushik, and RSS joint general secretaries Dr. Krishna Gopal and Arun Kumar. Kumar is also Sangh’s new BJP points person.

The BJP-ruled government in Uttar Pradesh and Assam have already come up with policies that the Sangh has been advocating as part of a nationwide policy to check what it calls “demographic imbalance”.
