we gained independence in 1947 and ever since we've been complaining about the independence people have to reproduce. the government has spent gazillions in funds to promote birth control, family planning, even giving out free condoms in health fairs.
Who knew that a social evil would come to the rescue? Bear in mind, i do not condone it in any remote sense- female foeticide is despicable! not that i doubt the administration's ability to control it- they can't! however, one thing is certain- the people who kill the girl child are inadvertently solving India's population woes by committing proverbial genocide- they are killing the reproductive abilities of the country!
i might well be the first one to think about it! am i saying it should happen? NO! however, what you reap, is what you sow, in the words of RATM. the people committing this heinous crime, nay, SIN, are earning their just rewards! The phenomenon is very decentralized i would say- the people killing the girl child, are reducing their own family's likelihood of proliferation.
i have renewed faith in god and mother earth and above all, the great design!

I dont understand how people can even commit such a "sin".its all a cultural flaw where people think that having boys is in some sense superior to have girls. But i totally agree they are throwing off the balance of things...isnt it already like a 3 boys to 1 girl ratio in india?
