BHOPAL: On October 6, 2011, chief minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan had sought the blessings at Peetambara Peeth at Ratangarh in Datia and launched the much-hyped 'Beti Bachao Abhiyan' all over the state with a pledge to protect girl child. Four years down the line Madhya Pradesh is top in the country in having maximum number of foeticide cases.

In year 2014, thirty percent of the total cases of foeticide in the country were reported from Madhya Pradesh alone, says the data released by national crime records bureau (NCRB) on August 18.

A total of 101 cases of foeticide were reported in the entire country in year 2014 but of these the highest 30 cases were reported from Madhya Pradesh, followed by Rajasthan (24 cases) and Uttar Pradesh (11).

However the number of foeticide cases which double since year 2011, when the state government launched its much hyped Beti Bachao Andolan to save female child, from 38 in 2011 to 79 in year 2013, have come down to 30 in 2014 but still its highest in the country.

The state government as per a reply made in state assembly in year 2012 a few months after the launch of Beti Bachao Abhiyan, informed that Rs 15 cr were spent on publicity of 'Beti Bachao Abhiyan', which the Congress leaders termed to have been wasted.
