The following are the five reasons responsible for an unfavourable sex ratio in india:-

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.
5. Security issues- female is considers as more prone to harassment and weak sex who needs protection.
