Let her live, let her bloom
let her shine like a beautiful moon

Popular Quotes on Beti Bachao | Female Foeticide & Infanticide | International Day of the Girl Child

“Life once conceived, must be protected with the utmost care; abortion and infanticide are abominable crimes.” — Pope Francis
“What’s a problem with India, in particular, is female feticide – aborting a female fetus. It is unacceptable and illegal, but it happens on a large scale. Then there’s also the killing of baby girls. Female feticide is pretty much middle-class, Indian experts say. This is not happening among the poor; they just have to keep bearing children and hope they live. This casts into doubt the spurious argument that we just have to wait until everyone’s middle class and then all of this will sort itself out. Better-off women will have fewer children – but at what cost?” — Barbara Crossette
“A girl child is like a bud, let her bloom and be flower of future.” — Unknown
“A girl child of today is the wife, mother and grandmother of tomorrow. Save her!” — Unknown
“Every man needs a mother, wife and a sister. Then why not a daughter?” — Unknown
“A female has the right to her body, even if she’s still in the womb.” — Unknown
“Man thinks he is a “HERO” but if he kills “HER” he’ll just remain a “O” (Zero)” — Unknown

FAQs

What is female Foeticide?

Female foeticide is the monstrous practice of finding out the sex of the foetus with Prenatal sex determination test and undergoing abortion if it is a girl.

What is Female infanticide?

Female infanticide is the evil custom of deliberate killing of newborn female babies by their mother and other family members.

In this practice, the newborn girls are killed by…

Drowning (Throwing them into rivers or plunging them into the pot filled with fluids)
Suffocating (Applying force on their body or strangling them with human hands)
Abandoning and Starving (Deserting them in a remote area or leaving them onto rubbish piles)

Female foeticide and infanticide are practiced in several male dominated and developing nations such as China, India and Pakistan etc.

What are the primary reasons of female Foeticide and female infanticide?

There are variety of social and economic reasons which cause unwillingness to raise a girl child.

Poverty
Boys are much more valued in male dominated, patriarchal society
A son is often preferred as an “asset” since he can earn and support the family; a daughter is a “liability” since the money spent on a daughter’s upbringing along with the dowry would be lost when she gets married off to another family, and so will not contribute financially to her parents.
Children being born out of wedlock (especially girls) are killed to avoid the stigma of illegitimacy
In many cultures, having a boy in the family is mandatory in order to carry out the legacy of the family line. As a result, some the well-educated and well-earning families too support this practice. Surprisingly, Sex determination tests and sex selective abortions are prevalent more amongst affluent families
Sons are viewed as mandatory in order to kindle the funeral pyre of their late parents and to assist in the soul’s salvation

All these points are the root causes of monstrous female Foeticide and female infanticide.

What are the effects of female Foeticide and female infanticide?

Disturbed / unbalanced natural human sex ratio
Male surplus
Too many males not having females to marry
Low supply of women increases the incidents of
- Men and their families kidnapping women from other areas
- Bride-purchasing (women are bought, sold, trafficked, raped and married off without consent)
- Physical and sexual abuse and violence against women and children
- Child marriages and forced marriages
- Maternal deaths due to forced abortions and early marriages
- Polyandry (in which a woman takes two or more husbands at the same time) etc.

This ends up devaluing women even further.

What is the punishment for female Foeticide?

In India, female Foeticide and female infanticide are illegal. Prenatal sex determination test is banned.
Forced abortion, causing death of an unborn child or intentionally preventing a child being born alive are punishable offences.
The PNDT Act provides for a maximum punishment of three-year jail term and a penalty of up to Rs 50,000.
Licences of sonography centres and medical practitioners performing illegal sex determination tests and sex-selective abortions could get cancelled

How can we stop female Foeticide and female infanticide?

We can stop or at least reduce the female foeticide and female infanticide by…

Eradicating the dowry system
Creating gender awareness policies to prevent female discrimination
Creating and implementing strict laws against gender testing

- Cash transfer for marriage assistance if the family waits until the legal age to marry off their daughter
