Asking people to shun the 18th century mindset of killing daughters
and to stay away from "double standards" of differentiating between boys
and girls, Prime Minister Narendra Modi Thursday warned that if the
mindset about girls was not changed it could lead to dangerous times for
future generations.
Launching the nationwide 'Beti Bachao-Beti Padhao' (save girl
child, educate her) campaign from Panipat in Haryana, the Prime Minister
said that a determined effort was needed to counter the adverse sex
ratio in the country.
"If we do not become aware and compassionate about this problem, we will be setting a dangerous precedent for future generations. The message has to go to every family, village and state in India.
