In a radical finding, the National Family and Health Survey (NFHS) in its latest survey and report finds that India's sex ratio, often lamented in the past, is finally skewed towards women: India now has 1,020 women for every 1000 men. 1/4 #BharatKiBeti

Nobel Prize winning economist Amartya Sen in a 1990 essay in the New York Review of Books had famously called it 'the missing women' of India when, back then, the ratio was abysmal at 927 women per 1000 men. Not any more as per a NFHS report released on Nov 24th 2/4 #BharatKiBeti
This report will probably not get enough coverage or be picked up in general discussions - but these numbers are big. It means that the many schemes under #betibachaobetipadhao over the last few years are beginning to yield outcomes that favour girl children.
3/4 #BharatKiBeti
