About The Book
Description
Author
The book has been written on the issue of selection of a male or a female child in the backdrop of population explosion and increasing rape and atrocities on women in India. Margaret Sanger the founder of birth control gives us an inspiration in her fight against the system which does not want to accept anything new against the set norms. She was the first to assert the rights of woman on her body and her desire to bear or not a child. The book raises many questions as to looking to the peculiar circumstances of the country what is the optimum population. What is the desired sex ratio of male and female? Who has the right to decide how many children are to be born and whether a girl or a boy is to be born. Whether any restrictions the governments or the courts are empowered to impose in larger public interest under the Constitution. Whether it is not better to select the sex of the child before conception or determine the sex of fetus and abort it before birth than to kill or get killed the girl child after birth due to infanticide or rape and unabated atrocities on girls. If we cannot provide safety and dignified life to girls what moral right we have to chant the hollow slogans of Kanya Brun Hatya Roko and Beti Bachao except our hypocrisy. No political leader no court no law and no social or religious institution can change the mindset of people of the country for their preference for sons.
