Abstract
In India rapid fertility declines and the advent of technologies for sex determination have contributed to the birth of fewer girls. As a result, today we have an excess of males and a shortage of females. So far much of the work on adverse sex ratios has been largely dealt with the identification, patterns, and causes of skewed sex ratios, and not their consequences, and to examine the emerging literature on the social consequences of the gender imbalance, and explores the relationship of sex ratios with other social dimensions.
