Girl
Increase in the number
of families in the city with single girl child indicates that things are
changing...
Much comes down to timing. The status of girls, which was synonymous
with violence and discrimination, has seen an appreciable change,
barring of course the areas where girls are considered lesser mortals.
Coming back to the change, the city in particular has witnessed rise in
the number of families with single girl child, and it goes without
saying that they are more than happy and content with their caring
daughters.
