Abstract

In India, the Child Sex Ratio is declining since the period even before independence. This is a matter of great concern for our civilization. The Child Sex Ratio is decreased from 976 in 1961 to 918 in 2011. To save and educate the girl child, Government of India launched the Beti Bachao Beti Padhao Scheme on 22nd Jan, 2015 from Panipat, Haryana. The scheme has been launched to target the 100 districts having the lowest Child Sex Ratio out of which 12 are from State of Haryana. The scheme has been launched to avoid sex biasness and to provide proper education to girl child in India. The nodal agency for the scheme is Ministry of Women and Child Development of India. The scheme targets to improve the Child Sex Ratio by mass advertisement campaign and strict implementation of PC & PNDT Act 1994. The education will be provided through Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan and RTE, 2010 to every girl child. The scheme will be implemented from national level to ward level in villages by nodal officers appointed for the purpose. The targets set up under the scheme will be reviewed at the end of 12th Five year plan i.e. in year 2017.
