The report also says that the implementation of the PCNPDT Act, too, is dismal, with only two convictions in a decade between 1994 to 2014, reveals the report.
With 2,266 cases of female infanticide between 1994 and 2014, Madhya Pradesh has always accounted for the largest number of cases in the country, with over 24% of cases coming from the state. A new report, released by the Asian Centre for Human Rights, released on Thursday, reveals that despite being the first state to introduce the Ladli Laxmi Yojana (LLY) in 2007, to improve child sex ratio and seven states including Uttar Pradesh, it has failed to bring about any change.
"As of 11 May 2015, 20 lakh girls were reportedly given benefits under the scheme since its launch in 2007. Six of seven states which emulated the LLY are Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Delhi, Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand and Goa. As of December 16, 2014, more than Rs 4,500 crore had been deposited in bank accounts of over 18.62 lakh girls under the scheme aimed at protecting the future of the girls and increasing their population in the state," read the report.
The report also says that the implementation of the PCNPDT Act, too, is dismal, with only two convictions in a decade between 1994 to 2014, reveals the report.
As per the Annual Health Report, too, the state registered a sex ratio of 904 and 905 during 2011-2012 and 2012-201313 respectively, way below than the national ratio of 918 as per the 2011 census.
The ACHR had earlier released a report revealing irregularities of Rs 19.4 crore in the implementation of the scheme in Haryana.
"The CAG audit (of the scheme) found that maintenance of record for selection of beneficiary was improper. As per instructions of the Directorate of Woman and Child Welfare Department the forms of ineligible applicant and their list were to be kept in the Angan Wadi Centers (AWCs) and parents or guardian of the girl were to be informed in writing regarding ineligibility of applicant. However, the CAG audit found that in all cases where scrutiny was done, the registration number and date of receipt of application forms were not recorded by the AWCs on the application forms/register. The CAG audit reported stated that in respect of ineligible applicants neither the application forms were retained nor their records were maintained in 7,508 AWCs,"the report stated.
The report also cites the CAG to state that National Savings Certificates in 231 cases were in 30 post offices more than five NSCs were issued to 185 beneficiaries of Rs 6000 each, amounting to Rs.13.86 lakh during the period 2010-13.
