The correct option is C Lack of education
  • Impoverished families have this notion that the more the number of members in the family, the more will be the numbers to earn income.
  • Some feel that more children are needed to look after them in their old age.
  • Nowadays we are getting better medical facilities which result in decreased death rate.
  • Indians still lag behind in the use of contraceptives and birth control methods.
  • Many of them are not willing to discuss or are totally unaware of them. Illiteracy is thus another cause of overpopulation.
