Patiala (Punjab) [India], January 25 (ANI): PunjabChief Minister Captain Amarinder Singh on Monday kick-started the National Girl Child Day celebrations with a clarion call to protect the life and liberty of girls.
The state government took the decision to dedicate the month of January as 'Dheeyan Di Lohri' to underline the need to create grass root level awareness in order to improve Punjab's Girl Child Sex Ratio. The ratio has already gone up from 890/1000 in 2013-14 to 920/1000 during 2019-20.
"Even religious scriptures accord high status to women. The girls are consistently outshining boys at various levels; they continue to prove their mettle year after year. Women only need the motivation to make a mark in every sphere and opportunities for them are growing," Singh said.
