The claim
The state of Uttar Pradesh has implemented or passed a population control bill, a law prohibiting people who have more than two children from availing government jobs and schemes.
Original review summary
The review says Uttar Pradesh had not implemented the Population Control Bill; a draft was released by the state law commission in 2021 but had not been presented in the Legislative Assembly. The draft proposed restrictions on government jobs and welfare schemes for people who did not meet its two-child mandate, but the review found that the bill had not been passed.[S1]
