Central supervisory board reconstituted to tackle declining child sex ratio

I was married on 28th November 2004, but said marriage has gone to rocks on account of harassment and tortures meted out to me which were accentuated due to philosophy of life and bias against getting female children for which the entire family of my in laws were not prepared and birth of daughters was abhorrent for them. When I conceived and the pregnancy was confirmed on 5.2.2005, I was deceitfully subjected to ultrasound primarily with a view to get the sex of the fetus determined which I was resisting and not agreeing for the same.
By deceit I was made to eat a cake laced with eggs when it was known to the doctor husband and in-laws family that I was allergic to egg and consequently I started vomiting with acute abdominal pain, on which as per the conspiracy of the in laws, I was taken to their chosen hospital without referring my regular gynecologist under whom I was getting my regular ante-natal check up done. There I was subjected to K.U.B (Kidney, ureter, Bladder) ultrasound which was not essential. On the pretext of conducting the K.U.B ultrasound I was subjected to full fetal scan, without my knowledge and consent.
There are mandatory and specific provisions under the P.C-P.N.D.T act which are required to be followed in every hospital/nursing home before performing an ultrasound on a pregnant woman, which also requires that a consent shall be obtained for conducting the fetal ultrasound and also the said hospital is required to maintain all records pertaining to the ultrasound in Form F and transmit to the District Appropriate Authority every month the said record of the Form F with regard to the said fetal ultrasounds which in the present case is shockingly and apparently missing as a result of manipulation to defeat the law.
A complaint was filed by me to the C.D.M.O / District Appropriate Authority, North West but no proper inquiry was conducted by the said Authority and for that reason the I had filed a separate complaint under section 200 CrPC against Hospital and five other persons under the P.C-P.N.D.T act which is pending before the concerned Metropolitan Magistrate. The Appropriate Authority under the act, though compelled to file a complaint which under the P.C-P.N.D.T act is determined to cause miscarriage of justice and defeat the law under the powerful influential guilty perpetrators of crime and defeat the objective of social legislation i.e. P.C-P.N.D.T act.
It was found very early in the investigations that no form F was filed, when fetal ultrasound was done on me, my name was not there in the monthly records sent to the appropriate authorities and also that no gynecologist had asked for a fetal scan, but had asked for a scan of my Kidneys , ureter and bladder, and still the fetal scan was done. Despite all this evidences the appropriate authorities had given an inquiry report that there is no direct/circumstantial evidence of sex determination. Despite repeated appeals by me against this inquiry committee report, no action was taken to undo the damage. Appropriate authority after an fake and cursory inquiry, opined that the acts of the Dr and Hospital Authorities ( not filling form F and not maintaining the requisite records) are procedural lapse and not an offense under the act despite the Authoritative pronouncement of Full Bench Of Gujarat High Court.
Despite all evidences the appropriate authority has left no stone unturned to favor the accused and harass me to withdraw my complaint. Therefore it not surprising that no woman dares to come out and file a complaint against the doctor who did the sex determination tests.

The reconstitution of the supervisory board is mostly old wine in a new bottle accompanied by the usual cliches.Only a systematic and methodical policy of comprehensive and consistent empowerment of our women will address this gender gap effectively.Committees have rarely solved problems meaningfully because of poor follow-up action.
