The stress on raising age at marriage in the National Population Policy is linked with reducing which risk?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Maternal and child health problems

Direct answer: D is correct. Raising the age at marriage can help reduce health risks associated with pregnancy and childbearing at a very young age. It may give adolescents more time for physical and emotional development, education and informed decision-making before marriage and parenthood. This is why the policy connects marriage age with maternal and child health, although age alone cannot solve every health problem; access to quality health care and education also matters. A is wrong because mineral shortage is a resource issue. B is wrong because sea storms are a weather and coastal hazard. C is wrong because seasonal rainfall is a climate topic. D is correct because early marriage and early pregnancy can create additional risks for the mother and child. Memory cue: later marriage allows more time for growth, education and safer parenthood.
