Responding to a question on Uttar Pradesh’s Population Control Bill, Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut on July 18 stated that overpopulation in UP and Bihar affects other states also. “We'll first wait and analyse the effects of Population Control Bill in Uttar Pradesh then discuss or debate at the national level. It shouldn't be introduced just because elections are near. Overpopulation in UP and Bihar affects other states also,” Raut to ANI.
