Population Growth Hinder Development

The rapid growth of population is the main cause of poverty in Bangladesh with nearly 16 crore people.

The growth rate of population is 1.5%, while the density of population is 9.16 per square kilometre. The

density of population stands topmost here. In population, Bangladesh stands 7th in the world.

Bangladesh is a poor country. The 49.8% of its people live below the poverty line while 33.37% below

absolute poverty.

The high rate of population versus limited land in Bangladesh is discrepant. The land gets gradually

divided and subdivided among the descendants. This phenomenon reduces the agricultural land. As a

result, the poor parents become landless and lose their income. And it eventually reduces the production

of agricultural crops. So, on one hand, the population is growing; on the other hand, food production is

decreasing. Owing to this situation, the rich are becoming poor and the poor poorer.

Though the production of crops is being increased, using high yielding variety (HYV) of seeds but again

this increased production cannot cater to the needs of the fast increasing mouths.

The job opportunities are also limited in Bangladesh. No new industry is being set up, no new business

is flourishing to create the employment opportunities for the new comers in the job markets. This

situation is creating a negative contribution to the per capital income of the people of the country. As a

result, the poverty situation is aggravating and it is going from bad to worse. Therefore, standard of

living of the people is going down.

The Government's initiative of population reduction strategy along with the NGOS and donor countries

nas already led the country to low middle income. dm
