## STATEMENT REFERRED TO IN REPLY  OF  LOK  SABHA  STARRED  QUESTION NO.  153  FOR  25.11.2016  (13TH  POSITION)  BY  DR.  PRITAM  GOPINATH  MUNDE AND SHRI DHARMENDRA YADAV REGARDING BETI BACHAO BETI PADHAO

- (a) The  Census  (2011)  data  showed  a  significant  declining  trend  in  the  Child  Sex  Ratio (CSR) between 0-6  years  with  an  all  time  low  of  918.    CSR  is  measured  by  the  census  in  a decade.  The State/UT wise detail of the CSR as per Census 2011 is placed at Annexure I.
- (b) Beti Bachao Beti Padhao Campaign (BBBP) was launched by Prime Minister on 22nd January, 2015 at Panipat, Haryana.  BBBP addresses the declining Child Sex Ratio (CSR) and related issues of women empowerment over a life-cycle continuum.  It is a tri-ministerial effort of  Ministries  of  Women  and  Child  Development,  Health  &  Family  Welfare  and  Human Resource  Development.    The  key  elements  of  the  scheme  include  nation-wide  awareness  and advocacy  campaign  and  multi-sectoral  action  in  selected  161  districts  at  present  (list  of  161 districts is attached at Annexure-II ). The multisectoral action includes strict enforcement of PreConception & Pre-Natal Diagnostic Techniques (PC&PNDT) Act, Pre-Natal/Post Natal care of mother, enrolment in schools, construction of girl toilets, community engagement and training etc.
- (c) A statement regarding funds allotted/ released and utilised under BBBP Campaign since 2014-15 is annexed at Annexure-III .
- (d) & (e) Since the overall objective of the Scheme is to improve declining Child Sex Ratio in the country and create an enabling environment for the education of girl child, this requires long-term attitudinal change.  The Scheme is at a nascent stage of implementation and it is too early to assess its impact at this stage.  However, scheme has been received well and and in the last  one  and  half  year,  several  local  innovative  interventions  have  been  demonstrated  by  the districts with support from Departments of WCD, Health & Education.  In the first phase 100 districts were taken up and in the Second phase, 61 more districts are covered under the scheme.
