Question

poem on female foeticide in English

Answer 1

“Female Foeticide” Female foeticideis the illegal practice of killing a foetus which is determined as a female. Female foeticide is prevalent in our country as a major social evil. The patriarchalsocial structure of India gives a secondary position to women.Social belief goes that the family runs through a male and hence the birth of a male child in the family is imminent to the carrying forward of its generation. Social discrimination and the preference for sons have given rise to the rate of social sex determination.Even some medical practitioners are making high incomes by determining pre-natal sex of the child and aborting foetus on the will of the parents. The practice is unlawful anddemands strict punishment in form offine or jail to the person requesting abortion of the unborn girl child as well as to the practitioner who gets the sex determined. me kind of complications in pregnancy can also demand surgical termination of pregnancy after eightweeks of conception. This is where the termination or abortion is legal and doctors may have to suggest and opt for discontinuance of pregnancy for the sake of health of the mother carrying the unborn child.However, the technique of surgical termination is misused by some peoplein getting rid of the female foetus. Some people intentionally get the sexdetermined of the unborn child by using the technique of ultrasound and if it is determined as female foetus, they get removal done by surgery. Many societies in India face the problem of skewed male-female sex ratio which is unhealthy to any society. But the reckless practice is still on without realizing the ill effects and drastic consequences of the practice.Abortion of female foetus is an act of murder. God is the author of life and nobody should have the right to take it. Some women themselves are in favour of getting their female foetus aborted through surgery which is a shameful act and must be condemned.Some do it willfully while others are forced by family or are fearful of thesocial outcomes of bearing a girl child. But it in any case, this practiceis illegal and disturbs the delicate equilibrium of the nature. Some states like Punjab, Haryana, Himachal Pradesh and Gujarat are states where the male-female ratio is most skewed and the menace of female foeticide is to blame.The unscrupulous murder of female foetus has no grounds for justification. More and more people in urban as well as rural parts all over the country are getting involvedin this malpractice. With PNDT (Pre Natal Diagnostics Techniques) Act 1994 being enforces, government attempted to regulate the use of pre-natal diagnostic techniques for legal or medical purposes and also prevent it by setting up a central body with powers and functions to check it. plzzz marks as brillant answer
