Girl child rescued from grave

In India problem of "Dowry" is like a scourge & due to this many parents don't want girl child in their family as they have to pay huge dowry in her marriage. That is the reason that in many states of India Girl : Boys ratio is remarkably low, as people either abort the girl child or in a few cases even kill them.

Now take the case of this couple who tried to kill their two-day-old granddaughter by burying her alive on the outskirts of Utkoor town in Mahabubnagar district in Andhra Pradesh state of India.

Abdul Rehman and Kusoora Begum whose family was already having seven daughters did not wanted the girl child anymore. So they hatched a plan, dug a pit on the roadside and buried the little girl in it. A passersby who heard her crying from a semi-dug grave in an agricultural field rescued her.

Its really shameful that such incidents occur in Indian society. It's the only one which was noticed & came to news. There are many cases which just go unnoticed & girls are killed just like that.
