Sukanya Samriddhi Account Scheme?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The Sukanya Samriddhi Account Scheme; that is offered in India Post office, India\u2019s postal department, and in authorized banks, is part of the Beti Bachao Beti Padhao campaign launched by the government of India led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on 22nd January 2015.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_it_need_initiatives_to_Empower_the_Girl_Child\"><\/span>Why it need initiatives to Empower the Girl Child<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The girl child faces many challenges. If there are challenges she faces after her birth, there are obstacles even to her birth, in the form of evil practice of female foeticide. Scientific and technological advances have made it possible for the gender of a foetus to be determined. And this works against the female in the very womb. When it is discovered that the foetus of a girl is in the womb of the carrying mother to-be, the family, if it desires not to have the girl baby come into the family, decides to abort the pregnancy.<\/p>\n<p>The result of such sex determination tests of the foetus, of the yet to be born child, as also the availability of pre-conception sex selection facilities and incidence of female infanticide has impacted the child sex ratio (CSR) over the years in India.<\/p>\n<p>The child sex ratio is the number of girls per 1000 boys between 0-6 years of age. Statistics sourced from the Women and Child Development Ministry website shows that the CSR of India in the year 1991 was 945, and while in 2001 it had declined to 927, a decade later the figure stood at 919. The constantly declining CSR observed in the statistics since the year 1961 has been a matter of great concern.<\/p>\n<p>Gender discrimination at every stage and level has been appalling. There has been a bias against the female gender socially and economically. The importance of fostering the empowerment of women, therefore, cannot be overemphasized.<\/p>\n<p>The Beti Bachao Beti Padhao initiative of the Union government seeks to prevent the gender-based elimination of the girl child, and ensure the survival, protection, education and participation of girls in the nation\u2019s life.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_has_the_Sukanya_Samriddhi_Account_Scheme_been_introduced\"><\/span>Why has the Sukanya Samriddhi Account Scheme been introduced?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>With a view to financially empower the girl child, the government launched the Sukanya Samriddhi Yojana.<\/p>\n<p>The Sukanya Samriddhi Account scheme, open only for girl children, has been introduced with a view to ensure the welfare of the girl child by promoting regular saving of money by her parent\/legal guardian in an account in her name.<\/p>\n<p>Given the spread of post offices in the country, including in remote areas and troubled areas, the availability of the Sukanya Samriddhi Account Yojana at the post office is of great benefit to the people as it allows increased accessibility.
