It is
an unfortunate fact that even now, in our country, the birth of a boy is
cause for elation while the arrival of a girl leads to disappointment. However,
times are gradually changing and an increasing number of people are warming up
to the idea of having a girl child.
I have seen a drastic change in my own village Sateli, a small village in Sawantwadi which
was once upon a time male dominated. Today, more than half of the population of
this village is of girls. People here are educating them, supporting them and
seeing them equal to boys.
Lets wait and watch substantial steps they take to commemorate the birth of the girl and how this gives a new birth to this village.
