Female infanticide in Pakistan is on rise. Aid groups have reported that hardly any steps have been taken in the country for preventing infanticide, especially among poor people. ==Analysis== During 19th century, the Northwest British India one fourth of the population preserved only half the daughters, while other 3/4th of the population had balanced sex ration. According to a ration, there were 118 males per 100 females. such model population is comparable to present sex ratio in number of districts of Northwestern India and Pakistan. Among Kharal people, female infanticide was noted to be common. A report from 1884 includes;-
The Kharrals are the most northerly of the great Ravi tribes, occupying a great portion of the land between Gugera and the Lahore district on both sides of the river, and extending some distance into the Gujranwala district. The Kharrals were Rajputs... and never got on with each other. The feuds of the Lakheras and upper Ravi Kharrals have been noticed. The tragic adventure of Mirza and Sahiban is said to have been the cause of desperate quarrels. Mirza was a Kharral of the Sahi muhin.. went as a boy to Khewa in Jhang, where he fell in love with his cousin Sahiban, the daughter of the chief man of the place. Her parents betrothed her to a youth of the Chadar tribe, but before the marriage could place, Mirza ran away with her. He was pursued and slain. Her relations strangled Sahiban.. These murders were cause of such bloody feuds between the clans that it at the length was thought inauspicious to have daughters, and as soon as they were born, they were strangled as Sahiban had been. This custom of female infanticide was common among the Kharrals till Colonel Hamilton, Commissioner of Multan persuaded them to discontinue it.
