We two, ours one

We two, ours one

We two, ours one is a slogan whose meaning is that of "one family, one child" and is intended to reinforce the message of population control. It appears frequently on road vehicles in the Indian state of Tamil Nadu. The slogan's unusual formation in English is due to it being a literal translation from Tamil.
