hey jai150!:)
The sex ratio is the ratio of males to females in a population.
Today infanticide,foeticide,dowry,domestic violence have became the basic causes of unfavourable sex ratio in India.
Reasons for Unfavourable Sex-ratio for Females in Indian society:-(i) Preferential treatment is given to a male child and female children get neglected in most Indian homes.(ii) The Infant mortality rate in India is high and female infant mortality rate is still higher.(iii) People go through pre-natal sex determination test. In case of a girl child they abort the child.(iv) Women generally have lower social, political and economic status in the Indian society. We find dowry deaths, opposition to widow remarriages and low nutritional levels in woman.(v) hack of social awareness programmes among people especially in rural areas.
hope it helps u dear!:)
