' foetus-icide' is referred to as abortion.
Sex selected (or other genetic traits ) determined while in utero, and deemed

I am curious.
Is not your referenced M:F ratio derived from live births?
Therefore there would be no way in India especially of knowing how many

Mr. Nunes,

infanticides. This problem has afflicted many

Baba Nascy,

Dear
FLORIANO, and Gabe,
