QUETTA: Health experts and government officials stressed the need for taking steps to control increasing population growth in the country which is causing imbalance in resources and consumption.

“We have to think about our future generation keeping in mind what resources we are leaving for their survival,” the experts said.

The experts expressed these views at an interactive dialogue on compelling theater performance, sexual, reproductive health and rights organised by Rahnuma Family Planning Association of Pakistan.

They stressed the need for creating awareness among the youth to understand their responsibilities before entering into married life.
