`Ready to discuss family planning'

NEW DELHI, SEPT. 13. Joining the debate on high growth rate among Muslims, the All India Muslim Personal Law Board today said it was ready to discuss promotion of family planning and literacy in the country.

``We will take up the issue at the next meeting of the AIMPLB in December and discuss steps to promote education and family planning among the downtrodden in the community,'' the AIMPLB vice-chairman, Maulana Syed Kalbe Sadiq, told a press conference here.

Urging all sections not to politicise the issue, he said while the literate in the community understood the importance of a planned small family, the illiterate and poor had to be given more educational opportunities by the Government. — PTI
