Beti Bachao Beti Padhao:

• 

  1.The Census (2011) data showed a significant declining trend in the Child Sex Ratio (CSR),
  calculated as number of girls for every 1000 boys between age group of 0-6 years, with an all time low of 918 in 2011 from 976 in 1961. The decline in CSR has been unabated since 1961. This is an alarming indicator for women disempowerment. It reflects both pre birth discrimination manifested through gender biased sex selection, and post birth discrimination against girls. The decline is widespread across the country and has expanded to rural as well as tribal areas.
  2. Alarmed by the sharp decline, the Government of India has introduced Beti Bachao, Beti
  Padhao (BBBP) programme to address the issue of decline in CSR in 100 gender critical
  districts. Coordinated & convergent efforts are needed to ensure survival, protection and
  education of the girl child.
  3. The Overall Goal of the Beti Bachao, Beti Padhao(BBBP) Scheme is to Celebrate the Girl
  Child & Enable her Education . The objectives of the Scheme are as under :-
  a) Prevent gender biased sex selective elimination
  b) Ensure survival & protection of the girl child
  c) Ensure education of the girl child
  4. The Beti Bachao Beti Padhao (BBBP) initiative has two major components. i) Mass
  Communication Campaign and ii) Multi-sectoral action in 100 selected districts (as a pilot)
