New Delhi: The Rashtriya Swyamsevak Sangh will organise a seminar for sensitizing the Mulsim women on the importance of having a small family.
According to an Economic Times report, the seminar--'Small Family, Happy Family' is being held in Ajmer today
The event will witness at least 5000 Muslim women from across the country, ET quoted Indresh Kumar, senior RSS leader and Muslim Rashtriya Manch leader, as saying.
"The Quran says it clearly that one must have only that many children that he can take can take care of, nurture and educate. This is a lesson that all Muslims should follow," he said.
Expressing his concern over increasing number divorced women, Kumar said, “the number of divorced women is increasing in the country and several of them are from the Muslim community. Why is this happening? We want the men who say talaq to their wives easily to get rid of their other bad habits.”
Sangh's move comes soon after its exhortaion for reviewal of country's population control policy to 'counter' the 'expanding numbers' of Muslims and Christians.
The Sangh had asked for the reformulation of the national population policy keeping in view the availability of resources in the country and future needs. The share of population of religions of Hindus has slipped from 88% to 83.5% between 1951-2011 censuses while Muslim population increased from 9.8% to 14.23% in the intervening period, the resolution passed by the RSS said.
