In 2008, the Ministry of Women and Child Development announced that January 24 would be marked as
National Girl Child Day across the country. While girls have proven their mettle in every sphere, many are denied opportunities; most are still killed in the womb or at birth.
Despite consistently outperforming boys in school examinations, many are denied higher education and are forced into marriages. Those that do enter the workforce often face discrimination because of a skewed perception of what a woman’s priorities should be.
