The Punjab Assembly resolves that as per findings of the 2023 Census, there is a rapid and unsustainable population growth rate that threatens the balance between the population size and available resources in the province.

The province of Punjab is already facing significant challenges in ensuring adequate access to basic services, such as nutrition, education, healthcare, and housing, due to the unchecked growth. It is essential to ensure the fundamental rights of all citizens, including access to quality life, adequate resources, and opportunities for sustainable development, by addressing the root cause of population pressure.

This House resolves and recognizes the urgency of controlling population growth in Punjab to secure the future of all citizens and promote sustainable development. The House calls for the following actions:

1.       Immediate Implementation of Family Planning Programs

2.       Awareness and Education Campaigns

3.       Enhanced Service Delivery to improve the accessibility and quality of family planning services, especially in underserved areas, and work towards ensuring that these services are both effective and easily available to all families.

This resolution is a cross-party call for action, uniting all political parties in the Punjab Assembly to support the urgent measures required to bring the population growth in line with Punjab’s available resources, ensuring a sustainable and prosperous future for all its citizens.
