Can haryana model in improving sex ratio be emulated in other north indian states too?

http://www.deccanchronicle.com/current-affairs/160116/sex-ratio-in-haryana-improves-crosses-900-mark-after-a-decade.html

Is 'beti bachao beti padhao' a success?

Has 'selfie with daughter' by Honourable PM in mann ki baat clicked with masses?

we can discuss reasons, grey areas n 'out of box' solutions for this problems.

  • Hard to confirm the data given in the news item, will have to wait for census 2021 or some other credible source.
    Plus even more hard to believe that within 4 years Haryana has seen such a massive improvement, look like skewed numbers.
    Also not stated in the news item is whether it's talking about child sex ratio or sex ratio in general, that makes a huge difference.
    So yes, good initiative by govt. To improve the sex ratio but too early to claim they have succeeded.

    Even I was taken by surprise. Anyways women related issues are quite important for GS n essay. So thought of starting a relevant thread amid all this bakar of insider info, luck in exam, future of optionals

    Bhaiya Abhi pichle saal beti bachao beti padhao yojana chalu huyi aur itne me sex ratio bhi improve ho gaya.
    Aur is saal Selfie with daughter Ka gimmick hua .
    How can you relate these with improvement in imagined improvement in sex ratio ( if any).

    The report is taking about improve in sex ratio for DECEMBER month . not over all ratio.
    It is talking about target of 950 for next 6 months.
    It is more of a PR exercise to take credit.

    Now you can say that every journey starts with a small step but they should also actual sex ratio , child sex ratio. This is misleading if we say there is improve in sex ratio for this week and we have set following target for next 4 weeks.
  • Sex Ration at birth for month of December 2015 is above 900 first time in the history of Haryana...
    I dont know its you people half knowledge(pretty lil main stream media) or your hatred for the Govt in Haryana.
    Anywys,while studying any topic dig all relevant sources,read between the line else you will Write something and not according to question's demand.
