Why is it important to save girl child?



It is indeed important to save girl child as today’s girl will be the mother of a child tomorrow. According to the last official census figures, there are only 933 women for 1000 men. In other way, we can say there when India entered new millennium, it has a deficit of 35 million women. We should stand against genocide that is eating society day by day. This article throws light on how girl child is discriminated not only in India but also world widely. We should take necessary steps to curb these practices and to save girl child.
·        Sex determination and sex selection
It is true that foetal sex determination and sex selection is a criminal offense in India but its practice is widespread. Number of doctors carrying out private clinics uses ultrasound machines and other latest technologies to figure out the sex of an unborn child. People are ready to pay huge sum of money for this and do not even hesitated to even abort a girl child.
·        Discrimination against girl child:
Female foeticide and infanticide are not just only issues pertaining with girl child. But at every stage of life, she is discriminated and abandoned for education, living standard and basic nutrition. She is not considered at par with boy child. Not only in early ages but even as a teenager, she is not provided with good clothes, nutritious food items and forced to eat left over crumbs. Even when she is supposed to be in college, she is hurriedly ‘married off’ where she has to depend on others for her survival. She does not enjoy social or economic independence. Moreover her illiteracy results into early pregnancies and high fertility rates. These conditions further aggravate the overall condition of females in a country. Again if she gives birth to a girl child, the whole journey of murder and discrimination begins.

Debate : Do the ends justify the means...

Note : Give it all a fair thought before you jot down... Flaming and religion-bashing will not be tolerated. Your participation is gladly appreciated. I dunno if you folks remember this incident; a couple of yrs back, the UPSC exam had a question where the emainee had to assert his views on *revolutionary terrorism* initiated by Bhagat Singh. As is typical of the government, hue and cry was not far behind...   Anyway, let us look at some facts -  Bhagat Singh was an atheist, considered to be one of the earliest Marxist in India and in line with hi thinking, he renamed the Hindustan Republican Party and called it the Hindustan Socialist Revolutionary Party. Bhagat Finally, awaiting his own execution for the murder of Saunders, Bhagat Singh at the young age of 24 studied Marxism thoroughly and wrote a profound pamphlet “Why I am an Atheist.” which is an ideological statement in itself.

"My cousin touched me there"

Note: When Tan suggested me to post this here...I gave it a thought. I felt he was right.  yeha I know in the election times ..people would be more inclined to politics.

But what I felt wasn't true and I'd never known that trait of hers which never matched mine had such a reason behind it. She never liked to talk or be familiar to the opposite sex. I found this irritating but I just used to remember all her other traits which brought her close to me and made her one of the closest beings to me on this Earth. As she and I had got very close in friendship that we began sharing secrets which we never thought would come out of our mind. And I thought I understood her as I thought she was me.
