It is considered by few people that in spite of the need to built new houses, countrysides should be protected from such constructions. To my mind, homes are also necessary and by a little bit of planning, we can construct them without causing much damage to countrysides.
On the one hand, with the growing population, the demand for residences is rising. The cities are already over-crowded and there is always a limit to exploit the space for construction, as people in the cities also need free spaces for parks, gardens, and orchards. Thus, it is not advisable to keep on building in it. Additionally, it will increase pollution levels in the city and affect the health of the residents.
On the other hand, building homes upon uncultivated areas of the countryside is the solution of this problem. This area is lying unused and if it is converted to the residential place, it will ensure the fair distribution of population and will help in reducing pollution and traffic congestion in the cities. Of course, there is some truth in the argument that countrysides should be preserved/ protected. However, in my opinion, the government and environmental activists should sit together and come up with the long-term solution.
To conclude, although countryside protection is highlighted concerned, the government should plan properly to meet the residential needs of the nation.
