Doodh peeti : ウィキペディア英語版
Doodh peeti
Doodh peeti was a method of female infanticide in which newborns were drowned in pails or pits of cow milk (''doodh''). The practice was prevalent in the Saurashtra and Kutch region of India. The phrase is an euphemism whose literal meaning is "feeding of milk".
==History==
During a census in 1805, the British officials found almost no girls in Jhareya Rajput families of Kutch and Kathiawar region. The 11th edition of Encyclopædia Britannica (1910) noted under the topic ''Infanticide'' that this method was practiced by some Rajputs to avoid paying dowry later. It noted that Rajahs sometimes paid over as dowry. The British resident in Baroda, Colonel Walker, while signing pacts with the local Rajputs had insisted on banning the practice. The practice however continued until late 19th century.
