China on Friday formally revised a law to allow couples to have three children in an attempt to boost falling birth rates.
The amendment to the Population and Family Planning Law was passed at a session of the National People’s Congress, China’s parliament, and rolled out measures including tax breaks to encourage couples to have more children.
The amendment formally reverses China’s long-time policy of allowing most couples only one child.
In 2016, Beijing had scrapped its decades-old one-child policy to replace it with a two-child limit, which, however, had failed to lead to the expected upsurge in births.
China introduced the strictly implemented one-child policy in the late 1970s, which, estimates say, resulted in hundreds of millions of fewer births but left Beijing facing the problems of a rapidly greying society.
The amended law includes measures to provide affordable nursing services, and also to reduce the cost of births and education of children, such as allowing tax deductions.
The measures include cancelling the “social maintenance fee”, which was a financial penalty couples paid for having children beyond the limit.
The government will also encourage local governments to offer parental leave, increasing women’s employment rights and improving childcare infrastructure.

]]>On behalf of the Chinese administration, women are being raped along with the whole scheme in ‘re-education’ camps designed for Vigar Muslims in the country. They are being made victims of sexual harassment and torture is being done. These new things have been revealed in BBC investigation. These incidents of rape, torture and torture will distract you. They (men) were always wearing masks. Don’t be afraid of Corona, he was always seen wearing a mask. They will be always seen wearing a suit. They were not in police uniform. Any time after midnight, they would come in the cell and pick up some women. These people used to drag them from the corridor to the ‘black room’. There was no surveillance camera there. Jiavudun told, “For many nights, women were taken away from this way.” She says, “I will hardly be able to forget these dreadful accidents of my life. Now I do not want to say a word about these incidents by mouth. It is difficult for me to even mention them.Turusune Ziavudun Weigar has lived for nine months in secret networks of huge camps built to keep Muslims imprisoned. These camps have been built in Xinjiang Province. According to independent estimates, more than a million women and men have been imprisoned in these camps spread over large areas created by the Chinese government. China says that these camps have been created to re-educate the Vigar people and other minority communities. Human rights organizations say that the Chinese government has gradually taken away the religious and other freedoms of the Weigar people. Now they are monitored collectively. They are taken into custody. Attempts are made to change their views and even force them to be sterilized. This campaign was started by Chinese President Xi Jinping against the Weigar people. In 2014, there were extremist attacks in Xinjiang on behalf of the Weigar separatists. Documents leaked by the New York Times show that only after this he instructed the authorities not to ‘show mercy’ at all. Last month, the US government said that China’s action is like a massacre. Whereas China says that the allegations that people are being collectively kept in camps and forced sterilization are absolutely false and nonsense.

]]>Former Congress president Rahul Gandhi on Tuesday targeted Prime Minister Narendra Modi over reports of China claiming a village in the border areas of Arunachal Pradesh. Now BJP’s national president Jagat Prakash Nadda has asked questions to the Congress MP. He asked the MP from Wayanad how long the Congress would continue to lie on China. He also targeted Rahul strongly on the Corona Virus Vaccine, Farmers Movement, APMC Act. JP Nadda said, ‘Now that Mr. Rahul Gandhi has returned from his monthly leave, I would like to ask him some questions. I hope he will answer these in today’s press conference. When will Rahul Gandhi, his family and the Congress stop lying on China? Can he deny that he was referring to thousands of kilometers of land, including that of Arunachal Pradesh, as gifted to China by none other than Pandit Nehru? Time and again, why does the Congress surrender to China? ‘ Nadda asked the Congress leader, ‘Rahul Gandhi did not leave any chance to degrade the country in the fight against Covid-19. Today, when the lowest number of cases are coming in India and our scientists have made a vaccine, why did they not congratulate the scientists even once and appreciated 130 crore Indians?
Nadda also questioned Rahul about the farmers. The BJP president said, ‘When will the Congress stop instigating and misleading the farmers of India? Why did the UPA stop the Swaminathan Commission report for years and not increase the MSP? Why did farmers remain in poverty for decades under the Congress government? Do they feel sympathy towards the farmers only while in opposition? ‘

]]>Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said on Tuesday that Western forces are using an aggressive and deceitful policy to involve India in their game against China. Lavrov also accused the Western countries that they were trying to weaken his relations with Russia’s close partner India. The Foreign Minister of Russia made this statement during a meeting of the Council of Russian Affairs, the Russian government think tank. Russia also targeted America’s Indo-Pacific strategy countering China’s growing influence. Apart from Japan, Australia, India also has an important role in the Indo-Pacific strategy of America. The Trump administration has criticized China’s ‘expansionist stance’ several times after the military conflict in Ladakh and underscored a strong partnership with India.
Russia and India have historically had good relations. The relationship between the two countries is so deep that even the US has objected. From Nehru to Narendra Modi, Russia gave important place in its foreign policy. As long as the Soviet Union remained, India continued to take inspiration from the system there and after its collapse there was no bitterness in the relationship. However, on the other hand, relations between Russia and China have also been good. In such a situation, the competition of America and Russia becomes a major challenge for India. The Foreign Minister of Russia criticized the Western forces, saying that Western countries feel that only their position and their efforts can be right. The Russian Foreign Minister said that despite all differences Russia wants to work within the ambit of global organizations. He said, Western countries want to establish a unipolar global system but Russia and China will never become its hanger.
