A right step towards the right direction...Reading some of the comments I reached the final conclusion about the whole aspects regarding this matter:
1.) Why should girls should not get equal status in society?
Girls should get equal recognition in the society and opportunities for jobs and living their life independently.But unfortunately,despite being in 2013,we are still living in stone age era of baseless and irrational thinking..Government has set up some funds..All I can do is hope that it should benefit the needy ones and does not swing in the corruption...
Moreover the whole society is better off both socially and economically if girls are brought to workforce and it increases living standards...
@ Rahul Sharma: Do you think death penalty is the right choice and solution for this problem?The whole world opposed the death penalties and many of the developed economies have abolished it..Infact,on the contrary death penalties will make things worse,if you think deeply you will understand what I mean...The real solution for this problem is to set up awareness campaigns and to change education system and educate people(qualitative education,not quantative) about respecting women as this is much more important than giving death penalties....
