Telangana Assembly Removes Two-Child Norm for Local Polls

The Telangana government has passed a new law that removes a rule which stopped people with more than two children from running in local elections.

This rule was made in 1994 to control the population, but now the government thinks the population is growing too slowly.

They want more children to be born so that the population stays healthy in the future.

The new law also makes it easier to hold local elections.

Additionally, some leaders in the government wanted to change the names of villages that they thought were not nice.

The government said they would look into these requests.

Some other leaders disagreed with the new law and said families should still plan their children carefully.
