Beti Bachao Beti Padhao Speech 4

"Good morning to all. I … study in class … I would like to speech on Beti Bachao Beti Padhao campaign on this occasion. My dear friends, this scheme is launched by the PM of India, Narendra Modi, in 2015 on 22nd January to ensure the rights for girl child all over the country. This is an innovative scheme launched together with other supportive programmes like Sukanya Samriddhi Yojana, etc. Beti Bachao Beti Padhao scheme is implemented to initiate the saving of girl child and educating the girl child. According to this scheme, the action plan and strategies have been made for positive outcome especially in the districts having low girl child sex ratio.

There are around 100 districts with low CSR (child sex ratio) have been targeted to work first. Some of the districts of Haryana state with low CSR are Rewari, Bhiwani, Kurukshetra, Ambala, Mahendergarh, Sonepat, Jhajjar, Panipat, Karnal, Kaithal, Rohtak, and Yamuna Nagar. This campaign has aimed to improve the condition of girls as well as make them independent both socially and financially in the future through proper and higher education. It is a positive result generating awareness programme in order to improve the efficiency of welfare services for women.

This scheme was the urgent necessity of society to correct the issues regarding welfare of girl child. If we see the census of 2011, the number of girl child (age group of 0 to 6 years) was left around 918/1,000 boys. The continuous decrease in the number of girl child was a dangerous sign and needed to tackle on urgent basis. It happened so because of some bad practices against them such as pre-determination of sex and sex selective abortions by using modern diagnostic tools in the hospitals. However, if by mistake a girl child takes birth, she has to face and bear the old social trend of gender discrimination for whole life and never gets equal opportunity to do works like a boy.

This programme is to remove the social biases favouring the male child in society as well as improving the status of girl child through safety and education. This scheme is not a medicine curing a disease however it is a supportive plan. It can be successful only when it will be supported by us. There is need to change the attitude and mindset (especially parents) towards the girl child forever so that she too can get the same opportunity after her birth like safety, health care, education, etc. In this way, a girl child can be an independent entity and not a burden over her parents. I would like to share with you a nice line written by me regarding girl child:

“Make a girl child power of the family, society and country; and not a burden, weakness and helpless entity of the family, society and country”

Thank You
