In a powerful statement that has sparked widespread discussion, Sadhvi Ritambhara, a prominent spiritual leader and key figure in the Ram Janmabhoomi movement, has urged the Indian government to introduce a Population Control Bill. Speaking on April 5, 2025, the Padma Bhushan awardee emphasized the urgency of addressing India’s growing population, calling it a necessary step for the nation’s future stability and spiritual well-being.
“Now it is time for a Population Control Bill; it is necessary,” Sadhvi Ritambhara declared, highlighting the strain that unchecked population growth places on resources and societal harmony. Known for her deep commitment to Hindu values and social empowerment, she argued that such a measure aligns with the broader vision of a balanced and prosperous India—one where spiritual and material progress can coexist.
The call comes amid ongoing debates about India’s demographic challenges, with the country’s population surpassing 1.4 billion. Sadhvi Ritambhara, who has long been a voice for cultural preservation and social welfare through initiatives like Vatsalya Gram Sanstha, framed the issue as both a practical and moral imperative. “If we do not act now, no amount of developmental resources will suffice,” she warned, echoing sentiments she has expressed in recent public appearances, including her remarks following the passage of the Waqf Amendment Bill.
Her statement has elicited mixed reactions. Supporters, including members of spiritual and nationalist circles, see it as a bold and timely stance. “Sadhvi Ritambhara speaks for the soul of Bharat,” said a follower at a recent gathering in Prayagraj, where she has been actively involved in the Maha Kumbh 2025 preparations. Critics, however, question whether such a bill could infringe on individual rights or disproportionately affect certain communities, reigniting debates over secularism and governance in India.
Sadhvi Ritambhara’s influence extends beyond spirituality into the socio-political sphere, a legacy cemented by her role in the Ram Mandir movement and her leadership in educational and welfare projects. Her latest appeal ties into her broader narrative of protecting India’s cultural and spiritual heritage—a mission she believes is threatened by overpopulation and resource scarcity.
As the nation reflects on her words, the question remains: Will this call resonate with policymakers in New Delhi? For now, Sadhvi Ritambhara’s voice continues to stir the conscience of a country at a crossroads, blending spiritual wisdom with a pragmatic plea for action.
