Today, we say that people are not gender biased. Almost equal respect and designation is given to both boys and girls. But still we can find many people (both in big cities and small towns) who believe that a family is complete only if there is a boy child in the family. People are ready to do anything, i mean it, anything to have a boy child. They pray to God (selfish people), take medical treatments (mean people), go for abortion if by chance its a girl child (ruthless). I was having a talk with one of my friend few days back and according to her " VANSH" is carried forward only through a boy child. But i have a question. Which 'vansh' we are talking about ?? My good friend has never even seen her grand father and she was not even aware of her village. All those who are reading this article, just question yourself if you know your grand grand father's name even. I am quite sure not more than 20% will know the answer. Don't worry I am also one of them. So big question is why do we guys kill a girl child before she is born ?? Just because of these handful stupid reasons. There is a beautiful poem on Indian girl who is asking her right for birth. It really touched my heart. I hope you will also like it:
