In April I wrote about the skewed sex ratio in favor of boys. This morning The Times of India has a story on a new amendment to the Pre-Natal Diagnostic Techniques rules where all unregistered ultrasound machines will be seized and fines levied. Imprisonment could also be involved.
Now we just have to hope for transparent application of the new law with no bribes, threats etc. of any kind involved......
I feel hopeful; freedom of the press is impressive in India.
