    Jungle raj in Maharshtra under BJP ruling. Before Baba Ramdev sold Puthra jeevak to give the birth to the sons. But it may be failed, now just harass & kill if any one give the birth to female child. Good idea.

    It's not right to blame a woman for delivering the female child. Every child is precious gift from the creator. Every men has to respect & cooperative in bringing up the child. A woman goes through so many hardships after conceving the baby in the womb. She remains patience & carries the baby with love until 9 months. So it is the duty of the husband to respect her. It is not she takes the right to choose male or female child. It is God who blesses them baby as he wants. Let us come out from narrow mindedness.

    Oh my GOD, what a pathetic situation indeed! So sad for the mother and so sad for her daughters who lost their love!

    The value of Daughters as Prophet Muhammed (PBUH) said – “whoever supports 2 little girls until they come of age, will be on the Day of Judgement as close to me as 2 fingers together”.

    Love is when a daughter rush to open the door when father comes home and daughters are blessings in home! Treat your daughters like queen! Because daughters love their parents most!
