The penalty for traveling without a ticket in some states of India - sterilization

Indian "hares" are deprived of the opportunity to have detey



Overpopulation - one of the major problems of modern India, and the government of the country for several decades trying to solve it by various methods, including radical enough.

In the mid-1970s the country's leadership has developed a program aimed at reducing the population growth rate, which includes a variety of propaganda, as well as cash incentives for the Indians, who decided to voluntary sterilization. Among the "bonuses" to get obrёkshim own infertility - real estate, estates and large interest-free loans.

Basically, the program was designed for women, but among its participants were men. Within a few years, thousands of volunteers have exchanged their right to have children for gifts and favors from the state.

Typically, sterilization is a vasectomy (surgery to remove the fragments or ligation of the vas deferens in men), and ligation of the fallopian tubes (fallopian tubes) in women. In some Indian states the procedure has even become compulsory, for example, as a penalty for ticketless travel by train.

In just a few decades, a total of more than 8, 3 million Indians were sterilized, but the problem of overpopulation of the country still is quite acute.
