India, hell for girl child: UN-DESA reports

As per the recant report by UN-DESA (United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs) India is the worst place for a girl child.
Data showing report of infant mortality rate for 150 nations over 40 yeas says that female infant (from 0-1 years) and child (from1-5) mortality rate (or simply death) has increased horribly in India.
While in other countries including Pakistan and Sri Lanka female mortality rate is decreasing, in India followed by China it is increasing.

Indian girl child aged 1-5 years is 75% more likely to die than an Indian boy.
|The country which prays goddess Durga and respects rivers in the name of female god is proving itself a hell for a girl child. It’s a shameful fact, and a painful reality.|

As clear from ratio of male to female mortality (per 100 Females)

In India 97 male infants(from 0-1 years) die for every 100 female infants.
And 56 male child(1-5) die for every 100 female child. However at world level it is 122 male infants and 116 male child for every 100 female infant and child.

All this is happening even when biologically infant girls are better survivors than boys if given equal access to food and health.
This is the warning that our ignorance to the needs of a girl in comparison to that of a boy is leading to increase in death and endangerment of girls.
Girls plays the role of mother, sister, wife etc but for these roles we first need a girl child, which is dying!

Girl Child:Traditional aspacts

Not only poor but those who are well-off sometimes are reluctant towards a girl child!
They do it in blindness of idea that girl is not the 'Vansh' (successor) and will be the property of in-laws after marriage. Big landlords, Thekedhars , Panchs of Panchayat etc do or force someone to do the female infanticide.
Its not a problem restricted to rural areas but is also identical in urban areas. Literate peoples at high posts also believe in same extremeness. All this results in falling sex ratio (came down from 909 in 2001 to 883  in 2011.) . 

Those who believe that girls are not the successor or are 'Paraya Dhan' (in-law's property) in fact forget that without girls a planet, a country , a society can't be possible. Because without a girl  there can be no Vansh, no family, no tradition to follow and no ONE to believe!

Girls are the most important element of society but god knows that why the fickle minded people don't realize that every person standing on earth is only and only because there was a girl to give birth to it. This universe , god/goddess , nature  , earth every thing symbolizes A GIRL !  Then why girl is SHRAPIT(cursed) and a boy is GIFTED?
