Opis

Female foeticide is one of the most nefarious crimes on this earth; perhaps what is detestable is that the people who commit crime belong to the educated class. To this menace our ancestral and biased view about male child, lack of education, ever increasing population and dowry have been good propellants. However, male- biasness is not only restricted to the poor families but it is much to do with the cultural beliefs and social norms. The cost of such baseless beliefs is paid by the girls at every sphere of her survival. Sex disparity persists not only in educational indicators but also in subject of her life and death.
