6. of the population policy is that by taking away the democratic rights of those states whose population is growing too fast - i.e. the states in the Hindi belt - these states will somehow find a way of controlling their population. This is both naive and absurd - even as it is discriminatory and unethical under India's constitution. 3). The government has not done enough in order to discipline the Hindi-belt states 4). It is the responsibility of the centre and not the state to sort out the population problem 79. As claimed by the government, the new population policy 1). Can be rightly termed as a "population discrimination" policy 2). Will teach a lesson to the Hindi-belt states 3). Is nothing but old wine in a new bottle 4). Has better provisions for ensuring population control The new population policy is but a sophisticated excuse for passing the buck - and for ensuring that nothing concrete is done. Rather than investigate why the Hindi-belt states have failed to control their population and what the centre could do to facilitate that process, the centre has taken to a cheap discriminatory formulation that essentially washes its hands off the problem - as if India as a whole will be unaffected by unsustainable population growth in the Hindi- belt states.

Tangible efforts have been made by the government towards the management of population 3). The centre has done little to find out why certain states have failed to contain their population 4). The new population undemocratic, yet ethical in nature 77. The essence of the new population policy is 1). To refrain from taking any concrete steps towards solving the population problem 2). That a state is responsible for managing its population and centre has no right to interfere in it 3). That the states will come to manage their population if their democratic rights are denied 4). To punish the Hindi-belt states which are responsible for population explosion 78. The author is of the opinion that 1). India will not be affected by the unsustainable population growth in the Hindi-belt states 2). The new population policy is a pretext for the government to shirk away its responsibility 2) Adulation 4) Conceited 2) oligarchy 4) monarchy Directions (Q.83 to 85): Given below are sentences where blanks have to be filled with an appropriate word(s).
