Abstract
In many parts of the world, the provision of family planning services arose originally out of official concern over rapid population growth. India typifies this historical approach to population control, which has generated intense debate over the relative merits of different approaches to changing national fertility patterns. This paper describes the role of family planning in India's population control effort and the significance of Indo-American cooperation in the field of reproductive medicine. It is based on the personal experience of the author as Medical Advisor to the Office of Population, United States Agency for International Development/New Delhi from October 1971, to December,1972.
