This means that there are fewer females than males in Telangana.<\/p>\n<p>There are a number of factors that can contribute to a lower sex ratio, including female infanticide, sex-selective abortion, and gender-based violence. Female infanticide is the practice of killing female infants at birth or shortly thereafter. Sex-selective abortion is the practice of aborting a fetus based on its sex. Gender-based violence is any act of violence that is directed against a person or group of persons on the basis of their sex, gender identity, or gender expression.<\/p>\n<p>The sex ratio in Telangana is a cause for concern, as it indicates that there is a bias against girls and women in the state. This bias can have a number of negative consequences, including lower educational attainment, lower employment opportunities, and increased poverty for girls and women.<\/p>\n<p>There are a number of things that can be done to address the issue of the low sex ratio in Telangana. These include raising awareness of the issue, providing support for girls and women, and implementing policies that promote gender equality.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[amp_mcq option1=&#8221;Higher than the national average&#8221;
