    He added: “Then we came down heavily on the offenders, resulting in seizures and sealing of laboratories. The activity was accelerated at the mass level. Religious gurus were involved and even the media played a role. It was a joint effort, which is now showing an encouraging change.”

    Kil.s must be punishedBy: Rajat | 20-Oct-2009 Reply | Forward This means round 5-20% of people / families are invloved in kil.g of child in the womb. These are simply murder.rs and must be brought to justice.
    Factual erros or printing mistake!!By: Researcher | 04-Jun-2009 Reply | Forward It is surpising to see at more than one place that the news reporter/ editor use the name of one organisation as "CRS (Central Registration System) data for Gujarat", does not probably exist in India. On search over internet it shows one such name in London that is involved with measurement of electricity. So a data said to be provided by CRS on sex ratio raise some doubt by the report. Even the same has been used by an officer at one place of the report. Some clarification need to be given to readers in this regard.
    Sex Ratio at Birth Vs. Sex Ratio 0-4 years By: Mayur | 02-Jun-2009 Reply | Forward While Sex ratio at Birth is increasing, what is shocking is the fact that child sex ratio in urban Gujarat is not improving. It was 818 in 2002 and it has slightly declined to 813 in 2007. Is it the case that since PNDT is being enforced heavily, girl child is being neglected and allowed to die early??? This is clear from death statistics as well. Proportion of female death (0-1 years) to total female death in urban Gujarat has shot up heavily from 12.2% in 2002 to 19.7% 2007.Is Urban Gujarat turning from female foeticide to female infanticide??!!!
