“Sri Narendra Modi, after becoming Prime Minister in 2014 appealed to the nation to adopt many schemes like ‘Beti Bachao-Beti Padhao’ for daughters as a symbol of pride and self-respect in the whole country which has resulted a mass campaign and led to a revolutionary improvement in the sex ratio,” Shah said in his message.
