Son Born After 9 Daughters Brings Joy to Haryana Family, Sparking Societal Debate
A family in Uchana Kalan, Jind district, Haryana, is celebrating the birth of a son named Dilkhush, their tenth child, after 24 years of marriage and nine daughters. Surender's wife, Ritu, aged 38, had 10 normal deliveries, with family members expressing relief and joy that their daughters now have a brother. The birth led to celebrations and the distribution of sweets at the hospital. This incident, however, also reignites discussions about the persistent societal preference for male children in India, even amidst government initiatives like 'Beti Bachao, Beti Padhao,' and raises questions about the pressure on women to bear sons.
