Explaining this, S.S.Bijral IGP (Rtd), state Convener of national project 'Beti Bachao Beti Padhao' said that this balance offset through selective births through misuse of ultrasound and others in- human methods have created a critical situation in and in 9 districts of J&K including Jammu district with fallen CSR of 831 girls against 1000 boys( 2011 census). Bijral said girl child is first and crucial role model of new born. Reiterating 'education is to know the extent of our ignorance', he quoted 12th century Islamic scholar Ibu Rashd aka Averroes: "we have no idea what capacities women have other than reproductive functions. For this we turn them into man's servant to feed and raise children. This destroys whatever other quality is there in them". Bijral saying ignoring women , the 50% of country's population would end up country as a paralytic body, stressed the need to accept and groom girls with same spirit as we do for a boy. Kamal Choudhary member state committee, said that mother favours the boy while father favours the girl child out of natur's way of opposite sex attraction.
