In India, girl child is being killed massively.
The number of girls has decreased substantially. Only 793 girls have remained there against 1000 boys in Punjab, one of the most advance and richest state of India.
I have suggested some ways to bring the society out of this problem.
One is, we should break the age old idea that only the boys have the right to perform the last rituals for the dead. We should allow our girls also to perform the last rituals for the dead. We should break the idea that soul of the dead remains at peace or goes ahead to its destination only if the last rituals are performed by a son of the dead only. Due to this belief which does not have any scientific backing a lot many people of our society go ahead in trying to give birth to a son.
Before adequate contraceptives they used to increase the population, these days they use the contraceptives or go for an abortion when ever they come to know there is a girl in the belly of the mother. Thus they go on increasing the s*x ratio gap.
The second method to tackle this problem is, we should increase earning opportunities for the girls .We have done a lot many things for this purpose as we can see girls working at petrol pumps, we can see girls driving auto rickshaws and taxies. Yet a lot is to be done in this field. Moreover we should make our society safer for women as much as possible.
If all of these steps are taken appropriately, within days we will be able not only to decrease the gap of s*x ratio but get rid of the Dowry problem also.
