China may scrap limit on children
Beijing : China appears poised to scrap the limit on the number of children couples can have, with a state-run newspaper Monday citing a draft civil code that would end decades of controversial family planning policies.
The wide-ranging code would get rid of a policy that has been enforced through fines but was also notorious for cases of forced abortions and sterilisation in the world’s most populous country. The Procuratorate Daily said the code omits any reference to “family planning” -- the current policy which limits couples to having no more than two children.
