What was the main long-term goal of the National Population Policy?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Population stabilization

Direct answer: Option A, population stabilization, was the main long-term goal. Stabilization means gradually bringing population growth to a sustainable level through informed, voluntary and responsible choices, supported by health and family-welfare services. It does not mean suddenly stopping all births or forcing one family size on everyone. Option A is correct because it states the broad demographic objective of the policy. Option B is wrong because rapid population increase is opposite to stabilization. Option C is wrong because the policy is concerned with people and welfare in both rural and urban areas, not only city development. Option D is wrong because industrial growth may be a development aim, but it is not the main long-term population goal. A useful memory cue is: stabilize population by improving people’s choices and well-being, not by coercion. This also helps avoid confusing population stabilization with population elimination or with a purely economic programme.
