Missing Sikh Girl

Why do we Sikhs kill our girls ? Greedy for wealth to be earned from dowry? Scared that we will not be able to save her honor ( strictly speaking it is our own false honor that she should not elope) ? Are we Savage ? Are we foolish ? Short sighted ? An unidentified ENEMY "X"!! Stupid Indian Punjab legacy!!

Are we:

1. Greedy for wealth to be earned from dowry--- ? Is this not an Anti Sikh activity as our Gurbani says earn out of your hard work and not out of yours in laws wealth.

2. Scared that we will not be able to save her honour ( strictly speaking it is our own false honour that she should not elope) ? --- Are we Sikhs supposed to be scared.

3. Are we Savage ? -- None of our action of past supports this. I think we are a Kind and a compassionate religous group .

4. Are we foolish ? --- No I dont think so . We have a brilliant PM in our own country . Also we have had a Chief minister in a distant land of British columbia in Canada -- An unbelieveable and unparalled feat :star: .

5.Short sighted ? -- I mean thinking of only ourself and the immediate next generation. I think this is not our legacy. Our ancestors have been giving up their lives for last 500 years so that we could be the harbinger of torch of life. I personally feel we Sikhs have a rendevouz with destiny till Akal.

6. An unidentified ENEMY "X" :- Is there some unidentified enemy that we are not able to see or understand who wants us to opt out of our march to destiny to AKAL ?

7. Stupid Indian Punjab legacy :- Now by some magic and blessing bestowed by our Gurus we are today a Global Community ( Wahe guru willing we shall shortly also become solar residents thanks to NASA and ISRO ). May be our brothers in western countries who live amongst the intellectually advanced people could shed some light. Do they in west also Knock out there girls as we do here ?

Now this is a highly emotive topic and we must have a fierce debate on this.

This is just the beginning of thoughts on this great site. More as we "PONDER"

Love :)

the main reason of female foeticide is the paraya dhan attiude of the indian society toward girls.a boy is a best insurance policy.in a family if a boy is earning 10000 and a girl is earning 1 lakh the parents will not hesistate to take money from the boy while they will not accept a single rupee from their daughter.many parents prefer to die rather than taking money from their daughters.

lavish spending on the marriages is the another reason
also many business families want boys to run their businesses.in india it is not possible for girls to manage bussines like restaurent transport etc

this problem will only solve when the attituide of the society towards girls change.crime against women should be reduced

In other parts of India even when girl child is not aborted it dies due to lack of care.

1. Develop The EQ ie Emotional Quotient in both the Man and Woman First Instead of IQ.
2. Try to Balance Between the IQ and EQ .
3 . Don't try to Suppress the Emotion Quotient of the Male Child from the childhood . Contex he becomes hard hearted.

4. Educate Women Also to Respect the her fellow Women ie in context of SAAS BAHU.

5. Try To give respect and VALUE to Those who don't Ask For Dowry . In the Context , If someone Doesn't Ask for dowry , people consider the groom valuless .
6. Educate the People.

Dear KDS ,


People want boys , it doesn't means that they love boys , but boy is a human being only for three years ie starting from to his 3 years.

Then the parents are head on heals to suppress his emotions and reduction of EQ and More Stress on IQ.

A Boy is a robotic Emotionless Donkey for parents , then After marriage He is an automatic Teller machine for wife .

People are giving lot of Stress on Women . But , people also have to think about the Men .

good replies dvs i agree with you

It is right , People follow double standard , same people who do not like Daughters , who fail to discharge their duties towards their daughters , at the time of marriage they expect the groom to do so.

They portray to the outside world that how much do they care for their daughter .


I have seen many families , they have made their daughters cross their age over 33 in search of MR.Right.

But at the same at home they disrespect their own daughters and every now and then they quarrel with them . And sometimes curse their daughters , that why you are not getting married .

missing sikh girls.

Female infanticide rates in the punjab are amoung the highest even today. Killing of baby girls even in sikh history has been prevlant and sadly it continued to be practices as an awful 'practice'/custom that existed historcally for e.g. just like the practic of 'satei'. Whereas 'sati' was openly critised and then outlawed the practice of killing girls was not wiped out and my opinion is that the sikh never actually did anything to stop it. It was practices a lot in the Bedi families. The same old stigma attached to girls as opposed to giving birth to boys which ever one aspired to for cultural and economic reasons. It is a very sad fact that punjabis/sikh did not outlaw it and it carried on for as long as it did.

For Centuries Punjabis and Sikhs are Living in the FAIRY TALE DREAMS , and are TELLING each other to Bell the Cat.
