New Delhi: VHP today backed the view that all Hindu women should bear four children and also sought to justify the remark by a seer that each Hindu family should have 10 children, saying it was made in the context of the "demographic imbalance being created in the country".

The right-wing body said that the country should either have a two-child norm for all communities or Hindu families should each have three-to-four children. It also called for the Uniform Civil Code to be applied in India. "I don't agree with Hindus having 10 children, but every Hindu family should have 3-4 children... or there should be a two-child norm for all communities.
