SEX RATIO PROBLEM IN INDIA-FOR THIS, PUBLIC AWARENESS CAMPAIGN IS ALSO NEEDED ON A WAR FOOTING

Abstract

There is a need to seriously see and understand the reason for this child sex ratio which is continuously decreasing in India. Evidently, the reason for low sex ratio is not natural, nor is it related to richness or poverty. This is a human brutality problem which is more or less prevalent in all parts of the country, castes, classes and communities. Attitudes towards girls, patriarchal thinking, cultural behavior, precincts, socio-economic pressures, insecurity, misuse of modern technology are the main reasons for this problem.
