Indian woman burnt to death for giving birth to girls

I don't think this is that common in Pakistan.

I'm sure it happens but its not as widespread due to religious reasons.

What has religion to do with it? no religion teaches this

Where did I say that it did?

Islam is highly against abortion and all that which is why killing baby girls is not as common in Pakistan as it is in india and other places. Also I guess cultural differences account for that too.

You said due to religious reasons but no religion promotes abortion or killing. It happens in Pakistan also but it is illegal so cases are not reported.


Pakistan's Abortion Rate Estimated at 29 Per 1,000 Women, Despite Procedure Being Illegal, Study Says

Ok well read this mate:

Women to men ratio were feared to reach 20:80 by the year 2020 as female fetus killing is rampant. Ten million girls have been killed by their parents in India in the past 20 years, either before they were born or immediately after, told Indian Minister for Women and Child Development Renuka Chowdhury to Reuters. According to the 2001 census, the national sex ratio was 933 girls to 1,000 boys, while in the worst-affected northern state of Punjab, it was 798 girls to 1,000 boys. The availability of ultrasound sex-determination tests leads to such mass killings in India.

Around 11 million abortions are carried out in India every year and nearly 80,000 women die during the process, says a report from Federation of Obstetrics and Gynecological Societies of India (FOGSI)

Yeti can you or any of your mates address what I have stated here??

Or this:


Brother you are learning about the real India contrary to the Incredible Shining India we are told about here on this forum by Indians. Women are abused big time in India:


Discrimination against Women

According to the 2001 census, female literacy in India is 54.16 % against male literacy of 75.85 %. Most of the working women remain outside the organized sector: A mere 2.3 % women are administrators and managers, and 20.5 % professional and technical workers.

There are an estimated 40 million Hindu widows in India, the least fortunate of them shunned and stripped of the life they lived when they were married. It’s believed that 15,000 widows live on the streets of Vrindavan, a Hindu holy city of about 55,000 population in northern India. Many widows – at least 40per cent are said to be under 50 – are dumped by their relatives in religious towns and left to live off charity or beg on the streets. Their plight was highlighted in Deepa Mehta’s award-winning film Water, which had to be shot mainly outside India because of Hindu extremist opposition to the production.

Nearly 9 out of 10 pregnant women aged between 15 and 49 years suffer from malnutrition and about half of all children (47%) under-five suffer from underweight and 21 % of the populations are undernourished. India alone has more undernourished people (204 million) than all of sub-Saharan Africa combined. Nearly 20 % of women dying in childbirth around the globe are Indians. Six out of every 10 births take place at home and untrained people attend more than half of them. 44 % of the Indian girls were married before they reached the age of 18. It added, 16 % of girls in the age group 15-19 years were already mothers or expecting their first child and that pregnancy is the leading cause of mortality in this age group.

On an average one Indian woman commits suicide every four hours over a dowry dispute. During Indian marriage, women should bring jewellery, cash and even consumer durables as part of dowry to the in-laws. If they fail, the victims are burnt to death – they are doused in kerosene and set fire to. Routinely the in-laws claim that the death happened simply due to an accident.

Rape is the fastest growing crime in India. Every hour Indian women face two rapes, two kidnappings, four molestations and seven incidents of cruelty from husbands and relative

without going off at a tangent and talking about other peoples misdemeanors as if it absolves India of crimes being committed????

Baharampur, West Bengal: A young woman was burnt to death, apparently for giving birth to baby girls consecutively, at Khargram in Murshidabad district of West Bengal on Sunday.
Police said 25-year-old Rupali Bibi was set ablaze, allegedly by her in-laws and husband, on Sunday morning.
Her charred body was later recovered from the house. Bibi's family later lodged a complaint with Khargram police station that she was killed for giving birth to two girls one after another in past and the in-laws had been plotting to eliminate her for quite some time.

The in-laws family was absconding but none of the accused will be spared, Superintendent of Police Humayun Kabir said.

WTF... Indian govt. shall provide ultra sound machines to the poor as well.
 
.
We can't judge India for one incident.That does not represent the whole nation.
btw,this act was very common between Arabs in Pre-Islamic era where they buried baby girls alive and killed the mothers sometimes.But it ended after Islam.

If I am correct the parents can't check the gender of their kids before birth.

Sad thing, the in-laws should be burned, it was a woman that brought them to this world, if they can't respect it then they should just die.

sums up indian culture.

Have you noticed no Internet wants to challenge the posts above??
