Proud Parents of a single daughter.
A girl, the perfect creation of God without whom the world wouldn’t have turned into generations. And yet, at her birth, there’s mostly a bone-chilling scream, Oh no, it’s a girl!”. Immediately her fate is sealed to DEATH! Yes, this beautiful creation of God is born to die here in our country India.
A study reveals that 3 to 7 lacs girl children are killed in the womb just for being girls. The study, published in the journal Lancet Global Health in the year 2018, has found that there is on average 239,000 excess deaths each year of girls under the age of five owing to neglect due to gender discrimination.
Cruel world, there also exists good souls, who feel blessed to be parents of a daughter and consider her a jewel in their crown, treat her like a princess, provide her a good upbringing and in the same way the daughter too makes her parents proud. We salute such daughters and fathers and invite them to join our community ‘Meri Laado’.

We will present their story to the world to stop such atrocities against the girl child. We need your support to provide her a better world. We request you to kindly come forward and stand with us in this initiative.

Politicians are the representatives of the general public, who are selected by the people through the voting system. They symbolize the will of people and what they want from the government. They work to provide the facilities given by the government to the public. But, do all the facilities reach the public? The answer will be no because, instead of working for the public, they work for themselves. It is quite disheartening to see that around 99 percent of the political leaders today have deviated from their path of serving the public and chose the path of corruption. Corruption has become an unavoidable part of politics and now and then, one or the other politician re-affirms this fact.
Below are some of the names of politicians who are found corrupted and are sentenced to jail.

The court rejected his bail plea and ordered his arrest. Yeddyurappa was arrested on 15 October 2011. While he allegedly has several corruption cases lying against him, he was sent to jail because of his alleged involvement in the illegal iron ore export scam in various districts of Karnataka.

India is an agrarian country with most of its population depending directly or indirectly on the farmers for livelihood and food consumption. However, this sector has been experiencing a lot of crisis since the past few decades, most of which include the increasing rate of farmer’s suicide in the country. Farming in India is a profession filled with many financial uncertainties. Most of the farmers in India do not have enough money to run their livelihood or send their children to schools. To meet the basic needs of their families, they have to take loans from the banks.
Even after producing food for the country, farmers find themselves in huge debts. They need money to service their loans, fund the next agricultural season, and support their family. Hence, they take fresh loans. The debt cycle continues. Loan recovery processes may be initiated, and these are often unethically aggressive, even bordering on the criminal. Without any hope or a way out, farmers commit suicide to end their problems and pain.
Most farmers in India commit suicide due to increasing debt, lack of irrigation and farming facilities, profit failure in cultivation, high input cost, climate change, and other factors leading to the ruin of crops. According to statistics, since 1995, 2, 96,438 farmers have committed suicide.
Significantly, since 2013, the government has been collecting the statistics of farmers’ suicides. According to this, every year, 12 thousand farmers end their lives. Neck deep in debts, they are unable to bear the agriculture losses. According to the government, in 2015, a total of 12,602 people, directly or indirectly related to agriculture committed suicide. Of these, 8,007 were farmers while 4,595 people were working as agricultural laborers. Out of the total 1, 33,623 suicide cases in India in 2015, 9.4 percent were the farmers who killed themselves.
In 2015, Maharashtra recorded the highest number of suicides by 4,291 farmers, while Karnataka stood second with 1,569 suicides. It is followed by Telangana (1400), Madhya Pradesh (1,290), Chhattisgarh (954), Andhra Pradesh (916), Tamil Nadu (606). The number of farmers who committed suicide in 2013 was 11,772 and in 2014 were 12,360.
The data given here clearly shows the situations the food giver of the country is facing. The people and the country need to wake up and support them to ease their problems. How will a country survive without its food producer?
