Foeticide is the most horrible manifestation of violence. It is astonishing to see a contradictory approach of ruling circles in drawing a distinction between the murder of an infant and foeticide. The killing of an infant is regarded as a crime, while imperceptibly there is an indirect encouragement to the practice of foeticide.
It is amazing how the enlightened section of the society tolerates this utterly despicable sin.
A few religious leaders have been advocating ban on foeticide, but very many others have been indifferent to it.
It is a glaring challenge before humanity as to how to check this crime which pollutes human sensitivities.
Muni Lokprakashji has written an inspiring novel on this subject. I do hope that this novel written in a simple flowing language would succeed in changing the mindset of the readers. This is my heart's desire - as it should be of all others.
