Answer:

Early marriage is one of the reason for (rapid population growth) population management.

More than Thirty seven persent of girls are married in child age. Girls married at early, are more likely to experience voilence, abuse and forced sexual relationship due to unequal power relation ship. It leads to sexually transmitted virus.

Child marriage contributes too higher total fertility as women marring earlier tend to both have children earlier and bear more children over their life time than if they had married later. Analysis against fifteen countries shows that towards the end of their reproductive life , eomen eho married at age thirteen, have on average 24.6 more life birth than if they had married at eighteenth or later, all other rhis being equal
