As per 2011 census, the number of states and union territories below National average has remained constant over 2001 and 2011 census in spite of an improvement in overall sex ratio. It is an important social indicator to measure the extent of prevailing equity between males and females in a society at a given point of time. According to experts sex differential in mortality, sex selective outmigration, skewed sex ratio at birth are the major contributory factors that influence changes in sex ratio. In India, sex ratio is skewed in favor of males and has continued to rise and expand in various forms.
Declining gender composition is emerging as a serious threat to the socio-economic, cultural and ethical structures and values of Indian society.
