Save the Girl Child - STOP BEING BLINDED BY PUJA's and PUNDITS

Recently was checking a AnteNatal Care high risk patient, when her mother-in-law became very restless. She said - 
"Madam, kya hum kaal ko aa sakte hai... aabhi pooja ka mahurat nikla ja raha hai??"

As the patient was an high-risk one, I decided to continue with my examination. 

The old lady again got restless. 

Nobody likes to be disturbed at work.. and imagine the irritation when someone is disturbing you, when 2 lives are at stake. 

I asked her - what was the pooja for?

The old lady got all lightened up and said - "pichli 2 baar se ladki hui hai... punditji ne kaha hai, devi maa ka vraat aur pooja karne se iss bar ladka hoga".

THATS THE SAD REALITY OF INDIA.

YOU CONSULT A FEMALE GYNAECOLOGIST TO HELP YOU DELIVER A HEALTHY CHILD

YOU PRAY TO A FEMALE GOD TO GIVE YOU A BOY CHILD

YOU BLAME A FEMALE FOR DELIVERING A BABY GIRL BUT PRAISE A MALE IF ITS A BABY BOY.

STOP BEING HYPOCRITES.
STOP LIVING BY RETARDED RULES.

ITS A SHAME GYNAECOLOGISTS LIKE MYSELF STILL HAVE TO ASK YOU TO SAVE THE GIRL CHILD.

STOP MAKING THE SOCIETY SHAMEFUL !!!
