Pre- Islamic period of Arabia is known as (DAUR_JAHILIYAT) One of the reasons for that is that Arabs were killing female child on birth. We are killing our female children even before birth.All children have right to live and killing of a child for its sex is barbaric and people who indulge in such practice be a doctor or a parent has no right to live.There is a controversy about an advertisement issued by govt of India which suggested hero's like Kapil Dev could not have even taken birth if his mother had not been allowed to live. This advt generated some heat because with our hero's photographs a photograph of pak general was also published.I have my own reasons to demand an apology from govt and the reason is that we don't want to protect our daughter only because she may give birth in future a hero but we protect them because we claim to be human beings and because we have no right to deprive any body of her life. the line of thinking in advt is dangerous that daughters should not be killed because in future such daughter may give birth to a future hero such daughters can also give birth to villains like Hitler and BIN-LADIN.

  1. The advertisement unfortunately conveys how deep rooted our (mis)belief about superiority of men is. Even in creating awareness, we have portrayed them as "hero" laying machines! We want them to live so that they give birth to a "boy" in future.
    Shameful, sad and disheartening.
