Delhi is India's state/union territory that has the lowest sex ratio in India. Sex ratio is the term used for the number of females per 1000 males in the population in a particular area. It acts as a social indicator of the equality between the number of females and males in the population. In India, the average sex ratio is 943 females for 1000 males as of the 2011 census. The ratio has slightly changed slightly compared to the 933:1000 ratio in 2001. Some states and union territories in India, like Kerala and Puducherry, have higher sex ratios of more than 1000 females per 1000 males. The northeastern regions have lower sex ratios. Delhi has a sex ratio of 868 females to 1000 males, while Haryana has a ratio of 879:1000.
