“Project ‘Meri Shakti Meri Beti’, which has been running in Delhi for the past several years, is now all set to roll out in Gurgaon & Manesar. The project, implemented by the Centre for Social Research (CSR) and supported by the German Embassy, aims at addressing gender-biased sex selection, replicating the best practices in combating sex-selective abortion and mends the gap in the regional approach to sex selection by coordinating cross-jurisdictional programming. Through partnerships with NGOs, CSR plans to establish rural and urban community-based interventions and build the capacity of the local government to effectively implement the law.”
