'Daughters are an asset'
LUDHIANA: The department of human development at Punjab Agricultural University (PAU) organized an awareness camp against female foeticide for the residents of Ayali Khurd on Tuesday.
The department head, Jatinder K Gulati, urged parents to consider their daughters an asset rather than a liability on the family. Anurag Chaudhary, head of social and preventive medicine department, Dayanand Medical College and Hospital, made the women aware of the consequences of repetitive abortions, importance of nutrition for girls during their adolescent years and for young mothers during their pregnancy.
Lawyers Harsimrat Kaur and Ajay Arora motivated the women to exercise their decision-making power and right in planning their family size, irrespective of the sex of their existing children.
During the camp, MSc student Rupinder recited a poem of Gurbhajan Gill, 'Rakhri di tand khatre vich'.
