Shayyed Ali even sent a divorce notice to his wife, who has said this was because she had failed to conceive a male child

While the prime minister’s Beti bachao… campaign continues to be actively promoted across the country, a 25-year-old man from Govandi allegedly fed his pregnant wife abortion pills, which killed the foetus, believing it was a girl child. Interestingly, he had deduced this from calculations on a Chinese calendar, the woman has said. As if that was not enough, he later sent a divorce notice to his wife.
