GIVE A BAN ON FEMALE FOETICIDE
She is a woman, mother, daughter, wife, sister…She is strong, passionate, sneaky, courageous, generous, emotions, committed, hope, beauty, power. She gives you life, respect, love, gratitude, she believes in you, take care of you, fight for you and deserve everything.
  “I am a girl…Please don’t kill me”, is becoming the unheard whimper of most of the girls who take a place inside the womb of their mother. India, where girls are supposed to be worshiped as Goddess, is being killed before they take birth. And I challenge, this happens the most in our incredible country.
Most of the people in our society prefer male child as it will be a less burden for them in the mere future. Today, it has become a trend to go for all sorts of sex determination through various means like ultrasound, vitro fertilization etc. Female foetuses are being aborted after the pre-natal sex determination, ultimately leading to avoiding the birth of girls.
There are several factors that lead to killing of a female foeticide. For example: Dowry should be provided for the marriage of a girl child, girls are considered to be a burden in all aspects. Boys are measured to be the pillar of the family as they earn a lot and have the capability to look after their family. But things are changing these days…
“Girls are the weakest sex”, this statement is being verified wrong by a number of females through different ways. Today, you can find women working in all sectors of industries, and very few sit at home idle. You can see a rise in the number of female journalists who act as equal as men and fight to bring out the truth.  Parents need to understand that girls are as much important as male children in our society. A very apt example can be of Pratibha Patil, Kiran Bedi etc. Inspite all these, do we guys still believe that girls should be termed as the weaker sex of society. ?  
A number of shows have been telecasted on air which raised the issue of female foeticide. One among them was the popular show of Aamir Khan (producer/actor/director), named Satyamev Jayate. It brought into limelight a several number of social issues and one of the major issue that was debated and discussed upon was of female foeticide.  Committees like Khap panchayat have been formed wherein such issues are being   dealt to reduce the problem.
There are some outrageous facts related to this social evil custom:
1)      One out of every three girls does not live to see her 15th birthday.
2)      Most of these deaths take place at the time of the birth.
3)      Every 6th child’s death is due to sex determination.

Now it depends on us that how should we change the mindset of the people in our society.  Abortion has been granted legal in India but aborting a girl child because it is a female has several stringent punishments. But still there are girls in different parts of our country who suffer because they are born as GIRLS and they have only one prayer “Aagle jaannam more bitiye Na banayo” (Do not make me a daughter in the next lifetime)

SAVE GIRL CHILD!!! SAVE INDIA…
