Indians are often vocal about women’s oppression abroad, especially in Muslim-majority countries. But there is one horrifying fact that rarely makes headlines: india itself has murdered millions of girls before they were even born.
States like Haryana and Punjab have seen millions of unborn girls killed due to gender bias. In india, being born female is treated as a crime. sex determination vans roam villages, and if the fetus is a boy, families rejoice. If it’s a girl? They terminate life before it even begins.
This is not ancient history. This is today, in India, where culture, greed, and patriarchy combine to create a silent genocide against girls.
1. Millions of Girls Murdered Before Birth
In haryana and punjab alone, millions of female fetuses have been terminated over the decades. This isn’t speculation — it’s recorded data showing skewed sex ratios.
2. Ultrasound Vans Turned Death Machines
Vans that claim to provide “medical services” are often used to determine the sex of the fetus. A boy is celebrated. A girl is silently aborted.
3. The Crime of Being Female
In india, the very fact of being female can mean death. Culture, tradition, and greed create a lethal mix, making gender-based pre-birth murder a systemic problem.
4. Haryana: The Epicenter of Skewed sex Ratios
haryana consistently shows the lowest female-to-male ratio in India. This is no coincidence — it is the result of decades of gender-selective abortions.
5. Millions Silenced Before They Could Speak
Every statistic represents a life never lived: a daughter, a sister, a future mother. Yet india spends more time lecturing other countries about women’s rights than addressing its own atrocities.
6. Patriarchy, Greed, and Silence
Dowries, social pressure, and the cultural preference for boys drive this horror. And the system often turns a blind eye, allowing killers to act with impunity.
🔥 The takeaway is devastating: india is home to a hidden, pre-birth genocide against girls, yet public discourse often focuses on other countries’ failures. Until patriarchy, greed, and corruption are confronted, millions of girls will continue to never see the light of day.
