"According to a recent report by the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) up to 50 million girls and women are missing from India' s population as a result of systematic gender discrimination in India. In most countries in the world, there are approximately 105 female births for every 100 males."
"In India, there are less than 93 women for every 100 men in the population. The accepted reason for such a disparity is the practice of female infanticide in India, prompted by the existence of a dowry system which requires the family to pay out a great deal of money when a female child is married. For a poor family, the birth of a girl child can signal the beginning of financial ruin and extreme hardship.

However this anti-female bias is by no means limited to poor families. Much of the discrimination is to do with cultural beliefs and social norms. These norms themselves must be challenged if this practice is to stop."

"HAMISH ROBERTSON: There's some disturbing new evidence in India about a growing gender imbalance in the country that's home to more than a billion people. A report published jointly by the Indian government and the United Nations Population Fund shows an alarming drop in the number of baby girls.

Calculating the child sex ratio as the number of girls per 1,000 boys in the under-six age group, the report finds that this ratio has now fallen below the 900 mark for the first time. This means that each year an increasing number of girls are being killed before they're born.

The report calls for immediate steps to control the imbalance, warning that it could eventually become extremely difficult, even impossible, to correct."...

..."SIMI CHAKRABARTI: India, the second most populous country in the world. But it's the number of men who are growing. Indian female population rate is actually going backwards. Why? Because more and more female foetuses are being terminated before they are born. In most parts of India, 10 per cent more boys are born than girls.

Ena Singh, of the United Nations Population Fund or the UNFPA, says India is facing a crisis of prejudice against girl children.

ENA SINGH: I think what this report showed was how dramatic this decline has become in the last 10 years. That was certainly a surprise.

SIMI CHAKRABARTI: The report also reveals that the gender imbalance cuts across all religions and all sections of Indian society."...

..."Female foeticide is the cause of worry. But that is happening anyway. People and doctors involved in the gruesome act of female foeticide are doing it illegally and will continue doing so despite the law."...


..."When Punjab's first ultrasound clinic opened in 1979, there were 925 girls for every 1,000 boys younger than 7, according to Sabu George, a public health activist who has criticized feticide for more than 20 years. By 1991, it was 875, and by 2001, it had plummeted again, to 793, according to national census figures"...

NEW DELHI -- In a tight alleyway in East Delhi, Radhika Devi, a bashful mother of two girls, and Manjula Thomas, a health worker who cares for pregnant women, rush to an ultrasound clinic. Devi is five months pregnant and desperately wants to know the sex of her unborn child.

"It's better if it's a boy," Devi said, her hands shaking nervously. "If it's a girl, we will get it aborted"...
