In 2011, the National Crimes Record Bureau in India declared that the Indian police had received almost 100,000 cases of cruelty towards women by their husband or relatives, and more often than not these cases were related to they carrying female foetuses.
An Indian proverb says raising a daughter is like watering your neighbor’s garden and the burden of having girls means many are killed at birth.

In 1961, for every 1,000 boys under the age of seven, there were 976 girls in India.
