Question 3 • 12011de2 CONNECTED Fall 2026 NM-World History and Geography S2

How does India’s attempt at controlling population growth differ from China’s?

Answer
A
India encourages the advancement of women.
B
India has a lower penalty for having too many children.
C
India allows only rural families to have many children.
D
India requires city dwellers to have only two children.

Explanation

India has generally focused on voluntary family planning and measures such as education and greater opportunities for women to help reduce birth rates. China historically used stricter limits on family size and penalties for families that exceeded them. So the best answer is that India encourages the advancement of women; the other choices describe restrictions that do not accurately distinguish India’s approach.
