Must be punished most strictly.
To begin with, there can be no worst humiliation of women other than female foeticide wherein a female is killed by none other than her own parents with the help of doctors who for lure of making quick money resort to this kind of inexcisable unethical practice – and that too while she is in her mother’s womb even before she is born! This has been happening in India since ages yet those involved in it are most unfortunately either not punished at all or even if punished escape with very light punishment. This makes a complete mockery of the rights off female child who is killed even before she is born. This is a matter of grave concern and the usual saab chalta hain attitude is entirely responsible for it!
This most nefarious crime owes its origin to many causes. Among the prominent ones are:
A girl child is mostly considered a liability as parents have to give an exorbitant money in dowry. Therefore in order to avoid it, many want that this innocent life to be eliminated right at the beginning so that they don’t face any more problems later.
A girl child has to be always protected unlike boys who cannot be abused by anyone so easily. Therefore, parents in order to avoid the trouble of always being bothered for her safety tend to decide to eliminate her at the foetus stage itself.
There is a wrong perception that only male children can look affair the parents in their old age. This is another reason for ruthless parents to indulge in female foeticide.
Last but not least, another wrong perception is that, last rites can only be performed by a male child.
