A balanced sex ratio is desirable for a healthy and just society. However, if certain beliefs and misuse of technology disturb the sex ratio it requires introspection. Haryana, an economically prosperous state of India, presents a case of cultural lag where technological advancement has been skewed to promote traditional cultural-religious beliefs which resulted in a poor sex ratio. Though the country is having a poor sex ratio, Haryana’s situation of poor sex ratio is quite disappointing. The grim condition of the poor sex ratio in state has led Narender Modi, the Prime Minister of India, to launch the “Beti Bachao Beti Padhao” campaign (Save the girl child, educate the girl child) from the Panipat District of Haryana. Primarily, there are two reasons for the preference of male children. First, there is a cultural belief in Hinduism that a son is essential to perform certain rituals and carry forward the family. Second, girls are considered an economic burden because of customs like dowry in the patriarchal society of Haryana. The religious beliefs and patriarchal society resulted in creating a hostile environment for girls in the state. The economic prosperity of Haryana facilitated people to take advantage of medical facilities and misuse them (for female feticide) to keep practicing their religious-cultural beliefs even though the law considers the practice a criminal offence. However, the stereotypical patriarchal attitude of the people does not match the rationality of the law. Therefore, the entire social set up largely allows this to happen. The poor sex ratio in Haryana has also given birth to other social evils like, increasing crime against women and trafficking of girls. This paper makes a modest attempt to analyze the poor sex ratio of the state and efforts to deconstruct the cultural lag existing in the region.
