NEW DELHI: It’s still the world’s most populous nation  but, according to China’s latest census, its birth rate is shrinking and  so is the working population that contributes majorly to the economy.  With a view to arresting this trend, the government has now allowed  couples to have up to three children. Will that work? In this episode of  ‘News Warrior’, StratNews Global Editor-in-Chief Nitin A. Gokhale looks  back at the country that strictly implemented the one-child policy for  decades, then allowed two kids, and has now relaxed the rules further.
