I don't know what to say about how I felt when I first read this in the morning.
Incidentally, this topic was discussed by a few medical professionals on a program that aired (on radio) yesterday and it made some reference to a doctor from AIIMIS (All India Institute of Medical Institute), who had shared some gruesome details about partial abortions conducted. I couldn't keep the radio on beyond a certain point (especially when he mentioned that partial remains of dead foetuses were thrown/left for the animals/dogs.
I have more to share about this topic, but due to lack of time, am not able to do so. In short, I would say that this practice of selective abortion is going on to a certain extent here in California among Indian Americans.

Rao sir it is a very sad but truthful poem .It touches the heart of all human particularly women but still with compulsion some ladies bound t do this mistakes ia there any way to stop otherhtna educating the people ?

very sad to read this poem sir...and very very said to hear lata mam that partial remains are thrown to animals...
I can't control my tears lata mam...

Very painful......I am unable to continue.

No... I am not opening and reading this poem and comments.

Suba, Your poem and JKM sir's poem, made me stand in the shoes of that womb and made me to feel that pain. and couldn't control my tears. Still there are some parents who don't want to give birth for a girl baby. How can we stop this? Who will educate them?

Suba i will try to understand your poem once my steno translate it for me .Suba in school and college days i used to write poems and stories in kannada .that time my motivator was my kannada professor Dr.Beytnal .He must have written more than 400 books(he was as popular as Girish karnad) and he kept the books with my college librarian to handover to me whenever i will visit the college. He and his wife treated me like their child. (u won’t believe after years I met him in my medical college where he was admitted and taken his last breath in the same hospital ).This itself shows how much he used to love me. He was my inspiration, my guide and philosopher too .After years when i visited my ex college on one of the occasion (sincerely I don’t remember)i received the books which i have donated to kannada library run by karnatak sangh . One of my poems became very popular amongst student i.e"Korike"-Request (that year i got the best written poem prize of the student award). If i get the published copy from the magazine i will upload it .Since i have not written any poem for a pretty long period i have lost the confidence .But whenever i see ur poem i feel like start writing again dear

OMG...should not have read this....my eyes full of tears......

Learning about your ability to write poem in kannada, and your professor , I am happy madam.I want to put a "korike".to you.you must try to write and translate it as soon as you can.please do it for us.we are waiting for that.And also happy to know my writing , though it is childish , made you thing to write.By the way, why don't you call me "suba' as you did first.

Sir thank u very much i will bring the magazine from my mother's place(if she as not destroyed it, even in that case i will try to get it from my ex college library ) and i will send the mail to lata as i don't have kannada script .With ur and suba 's encouragemnt i will try to write once again even if it is silly i will upload it for ur valuable suggestion sir .

absolutely speechless....in the beginning you feel to read the next line but towards the end you regret reading it...
