Gurugram: Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched the ambitious “Beti Bachao, Beti Padhao” (B3P) campaign against female foeticide in Panipat in January 2015. Two years later, Haryana, notorious for its skewed sex ratio and patriarchal mindset, saw a historic turnaround.

Sex ratio at birth (SRB) in the State this past year touched the 900-mark for the first time in almost two decades.

“The Prime Minister chose Haryana to launch the Beti Bachao, Beti Padhao campaign. The correction of sex ratio in the State was an uphill task, but we accepted the challenge. The SRB in December 2016 was 914. We have to achieve 950, for which we will need support from our neighbouring States. The good news is that Haryana has shown the way and taken the lead in correcting the sex ratio in the country,” said Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar in a statement to The Hindu.

This improvement was made possible due to effective implementation of the law against illegal sex-determination and female foeticide.
