" Ma, I remember your feeling when the first time you came to know about my existence. You were so happy and I could feel the delectation in your voice when you told everybody about me. That time you were full of positive vibes which would make the inchoate form of me fill with joy. It gave me strength to grow and made me halcyon.
With each passing day I slowly started becoming zaftig and I started to reverie. I knew for sure that I would never gallivant for happiness because I would have you and Pa by my side loving me, pampering me, understanding me.
Everything was fine until that Cimmerian day came knocking at my door. On that day my true identity was revealed to you and Pa. And the discovery of my identity was like a bomb explosion in our life. For me my identity was frippery to know but that was not the case with you and Pa.
You both were so ardent to know my identity that you did a faux pas and when you came to know about me I felt a frisson from the vibes coming from you and I was afraid.
After that day nothing was normal. I could hear Pa and you discussing about me, contemplating what to do next and then you both came to a final decision. That's when I realized how atrabilious you both were towards me. And the decision you took regarding me was reverberating in my small mind because the decision was to rive me from you.
And with that decision my dreams began to collapse. I was feeling crestfallen. I felt like kicking, banging but I didn't do it because I knew it would hurt you, Ma.
But Ma you are going to lacerate me just because I am a Girl….GIRL.Is being Girl so odious?? You really don't want me??? Are you not fond me??? Is being girl so infelicitous???
Ma, please don't do this to me. I promise I would be a good girl. I would study hard and make you proud. I would do something if not in studies then in sports or other areas so that you can keep your head high with pride.
I won't be a burden instead I would help you, support you. I will take care of you as a boy. I will be your son.
Please Ma, I too want to see the azure, the Sun, the Moon and the beautiful creation of God and Man. I want to enjoy the rains, summer's heat, apricity and many more things. And above all I want to see you and Pa because I am auric of you. I can feel you ,Ma but I want to see you, hug you.
But for doing all this I need only one chance. A chance to live life. A chance to see this beautiful world. Please Ma don't annihilate me. Please give me ONE CHANCE."
But her request was left unheard by her mother and her parents homologated to abortion. She was talking to her mother who was lying on the hospital bed for abortion. And in clandestine doctor along with her parents ended her life before it could start. And there was one more entry in the list of FEMALE FOETICIDE.
Feticide (or foeticide) is an act that causes the death of a fetus. Sometimes it is done intentionally to kill girl infants. That is why this has become a major social problem and termed as Female Feticide.
Guys FEMALE FOETICIDE is a serious problem troubling India in this 21 st century even when we have examples of Kalpana Chawla, Saina Nehwal and many more. Even when Government had laid down several rules to stop this it is still prevailing. Then the question arise what is actual root of this problem which is prevalent not only in rural areas but also urban areas like Mumbai.
Mentality of people is responsible for this. Mentality which says that girls are burden and the reason for this is the still existing dowry system, safety of women and many more. And if mentality of parents is to be blamed then the mentality of Doctor's is to be blamed more. Doctor's betray their profession for money and support female foeticide.
And the solution to this problem is Education and spreading awareness according to me.
P.S- I was inspired to write after watching the episode of Satyamev Jayate. The cases shown in the show just left me shocked. It's weird but true that such inhuman people do exist. I thought of making it the girl's view so that it would be appealing because if I had only stated the facts then it would have been boring.
And to all the girls reading my OS..please be grateful to our parents because they love us unconditionally even when we are the daughter child..
And please leave your comment guys...eagerly waiting.
