Book Description | Statistics in India show that every 50 seconds a parent kills his daughter. The number of missing girls (0-6 years) is 629 thousand girls every year. Most are eliminated through abortions and others are killed, neglected or abandoned at the mercy of circumstances. The roots of this problem lie in the society’s preference for the male gender due to the girl’s inability to participate in the fields of work, to maintain the continuity of the family name, to be responsible for providing the dowry to the husband, and finally to her moving to the house of her husband’s relatives, which prevents her from taking care of her parents when they are old. |
