Why are girls’ education and marriage age linked together in the National Population Policy?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because education delays marriage and increases health awareness

Correct answer: D, because education can delay marriage and increase health awareness. Education gives girls knowledge, confidence, and greater ability to participate in decisions about health, marriage, children, and work. It can also improve awareness of nutrition, reproductive health, available services, and the consequences of early pregnancy. When marriage and first pregnancy are delayed, young women may have more time for physical, emotional, and educational development. A is wrong because education does not always increase early marriage; the policy links education with opportunities and informed choices that may delay it. B is wrong because age at marriage can affect maternal and child health. C is the opposite of the evidence-based idea: education generally strengthens, rather than reduces, decision-making ability. D is correct because it connects education with delayed marriage and informed health choices. Memory cue: education expands choices; expanded choices often support later, healthier family decisions.
