Unfortunately, relatively little is being done to curb the population growth. For all this talk of the great technological boom that has occurred in India, along with the accompanying economic benefits, the vast majority of inhabitants of that country still live in squalor. Only a small, highly visible minority are the beneficiaries of India's good fortune. Of course that is all that ever makes the news recently. No more attention is paid to the vast slums in Calcutta, the streets of glitzy Bombay that are strewn with a multitude of beggars and lepers, or the destitute rural areas, which comprise most of the nation. Now the world is only focused on the ever-expanding Silicon Valley that is taking shape in the subcontinent because its success is deeply intertwined with our own prosperity. This distraction has seduced and distracted those in power in India to the point that they will not concentrate on the problem that could rip their country apart.

Unfortunately, tradition is such a strong driving force behind much of India, that it takes a great deal of education to thwart the prevalent conventional view in that country that having large families is a good thing. Contraception, abstinence, and birth control hardly getting a hearing from a population whose collective mindset has been shaped by centuries of religious and cultural teaching about how much of a blessing it is to have as many offspring as possible.

Unfortunately, the conditions in the country are ripe for rampant disease, large-scale sectarian violence, and environmental disaster. If one lesson can be gleaned from all this it is that catastrophe occurs when you allow tradition to have supremacy over common sense and rational thinking.
