"Female foeticide is an awfully ugly form of violence. The ruling class that looks the murder of a child and female foeticide as two different surprises me. Child murder is a crime. But female foeticide is, indirectly, encouraged.

Astoundingly even the enlightened class of our society also tolerates this heinous sin. Some religions gurus never tire of raising the female foeticide. Many of them have a feeling of neutrality towards it.

It is a major question before the humanity as to how to stop this crime that's blackening its fair face. Muni Lok Prakash "Lokesh" has written an inspiring novel on the subject written in a simple, straight language, and this novel would succeed in changing the mentality of the reader towards this problem."
