India is also facing the problem with low sex ration i.e. 940 in 2011 census along with its neighbor south Asian countries. There are various factors which contributed to its low level.
1. Social factors- patriarchal society with more male centric thoughts force one family to have male child with old beliefs like family nomination.
lack of education makes them unable to follow right attitude towards it.
2. Technological factors- advent of science and technology like ultrasonography has made it possible for antenatal sex detection. It led to lowering sex ratio.
3. Economical factors- due to prevalent social evils like dowry daughters are considered as economic burden for family. So family prefer to have male child as earning source as well as reducing burden.
4. Lack of awareness- due to low contribution of female in economy of house female are not considered as important as male. That are lack of basic amenities
In spite of these all prevalent issues govt policies like universal education, sukanya smridhi gonna, beti bachao beti padhao a major role is played for improving this and changing attitude. Merely 7 points increase in levels from 933 in 2001 to 94p in 2011 raises a hope for easing the situation. But continuous efforts are needed for the same
