Save Girl Child
Girls are the most beautiful creation of this universe. The hand that rocks the cradle, the procreators, the mother of tomorrow, a woman shapes the destiny of civilization. Such is the tragic irony of fate, that a beautiful creation such as the girl child is today one of the most serious concerns the humanity is facing.
In ancient times birth of a girl child was considered inauspicious. Today also in some orthodox families gender imbalance is becoming a serious problem. Female child is either aborted or killed after birth. Girls are considered a burden because of social evils like dowry system. Girls are prone to domestic violence, exploitation and many other cruel activities.
Traditions and rituals outline the existence of girl child in India. Why is there so much discrimination between a male and female child?
In India where Goddesses like Saraswati, Durga,Laxmi are worshipped, these too are considered females then girl child is not welcomed. Now girls are outshining boys in each field. They are holding key positions as President, Prime Minister, pilots, doctors, administrators, engineers and so on. They perform dual responsibilities so efficiently.
So the need of the hour is to save girl child. Our Prime Minister has also launched a campaign "BETI BACHAO, BETI PADHAO". Government has also banned female foeticide and sex discrimination so that female child should not be killed before seeing the light of this beautiful world. Girls are really the beauty of this earth. They should be allowed to be born and bloom
