Bharatiya Janata Party lawmaker Vikram Saini landed in controversy after demanding people to have more children.

BJP legislator from Muzaffarnagar was addressing a population control campaign programme when he urged Hindus to produce more children until a law for population control comes into existence.

“Until a law on population control comes into existence, I have told my wife to keep producing children, even though she told me that two were enough,” Saini said.

At a time when the country is already dealing with the issue of rapidly increasing population, the statement from the BJP leader has come as a shock.

Talking about the two-child policy, Saini claimed that only Hindus have accepted the policy.

“The law should be equal for everyone. When we had two children, my wife said we did not need a third one, but I said we should have four to five,” the lawmaker added.

This is not for the first time that motor-mouth Saini has led himself to controversy. In January, Khatauli MLA had said India is a country for the Hindus as it is known as ‘Hindustan’. The BJP leader had also said that “irresponsible leaders” had allowed some Muslims to live in India.
