Declining Ratio of Girl Child

By - Neer Tanwar

It is a great irony that in a country where women are worshipped for power and energy, they are facing a kind of extinction, thereby bringing down the ratio. The birth of a son is a cause for great rejoicing with drumming, singing and public proclamation but that of a girl is an occasion for disappointment or at the best indifference.

The main cause of declining ratio of girl child is the fact that the large number of mal-nutrition and disease which are either not treated or treated inadequately. The girls are killed even before their birth. The practice of pre-birth sex selection has spread rapidly through all castes and groups.

Child marriage, early pregnancy, malnutrition during pregnancy, lack of medical treatment, physical torture, rapes and unequal status in the society make them the child of lesser Gods.

It is a really cruel joke that the mother of humanity is no one's child, the maker of the home, does not have a home. The 'Creator' is destroyed mercilessly in the hands of her own near and dear ones. Even the womb of her mother is not a safe home for her as she is cruelly terminated by har saviours i.e., parents and medical practitioners.

Thank you !

Declining ratio of girl child:-

  • Female Foeticide: According to Amartya Sen, high-tech sexism, the widespread use of ultrasound and amniocentesis for sex determination play a critical part in female fetus-induced abortions.
  • Female infanticide: Female infanticide is still frequent in some parts of India, where there is still a preference for male children. According to the United Nations Population Fund, at least 117 million girls globally go "missing" owing to sex-selective abortions.
  • Education: People are illiterate and hence uninformed of the influence and function of women in the modern world. India's gender ratio situation is significantly impacted by the role of education. The Indian society frequently involves child marriages. Child marriage is a problem that affects the majority of the females at a very young age. Due to this, they are forced to drop out of school and take on more domestic duties.
  • Poverty: Poverty is one of the reasons contributing to the falling sex ratio. The poverty rate is low in states like Tamil Nadu despite having a high sex ratio. In other states, many girls are denied access to wholesome meals because of poverty.
  • Lack of female emancipation:- Women, particularly in rural areas, lack political and economic authority. Opportunities for women are not as plentiful as for men. Women struggle in many societies to establish their roles due to a lack of education. Girl's graves can now be seen throughout the state of Uttar Pradesh.
  • Male dominance: The patriarchal system is practised throughout most of India. The sole breadwinners in India are generally thought to be men. The primary causes of the diminishing number of females, particularly in North India, are the methods of sex determination and female foeticide.
