Birth rate in Kerala appears to have started on a course of rapid decline; that the decline began before the intensification of the family planning programme; and that the impact of this fall has already begun to be felt in the growth rate of primary school enrolment. If this analysis correctly portrays the recent trends in the fertility rate in Kerala, and if these trends continue, it would have far-reaching implications for the population policy of underdeveloped areas like Kerala with low levels of per capita income, industrialisation and urbanisation, but high levels of literacy and education. |
