The United Nations Population Fund has taken India to task over its ratio of females to males.
In a report marking World Population Day, the Fund's Michael Vlassof said that India's commitment to tackling issues such as female foeticide and infanticide, which helped to give India one of the worst female-male ratios, seemed to be quite low.
The sex ratio in India, according to a recent survey, is 960 females to 1,000 males, and the Fund says it sees this imbalance as being due to the lower status of women in Indian society, to a preference for sons and the practices of female foeticide and infanticide.
联合国人口基金会对印度男女比例的失调进行了批评。
在一份世界人口日的报告中，该基金会的Michael Vlassof说，在处理致使男女比例严重失调的堕女胎和杀女婴问题上，印度似乎行动很慢。
最新调查结果表明，印度的男女比例是1000:960。该基金会说，它认为造成这一失衡的原因是妇女在印度社会中的较低地位、重男轻女的观念以及堕女胎和杀女婴行为
