The debate will broadly focus on the following points:

  • The girl child is still not treated as equal to a boy.
  • Girls are made to feel guilty for opting for a career over building a family.
  • The pursuit for security during old age pushes parents to give preferential treatment to boys.
  • People fail to realise that by denying women their rights, they create ignorant societies.
