Ghaziabad: In a significant breakthrough, police teams from Ghaziabad and Sonipat exposed a pre-natal sex determination racket operating within the premises of Shiva Ultrasound, a registered centre in Ghaziabad.
The accused had allegedly been facilitating couples from Haryana and neighbouring states for illicit sex determination tests, charging a hefty fee of Rs 30,000.
Given the proximity of Loni to Haryana, a state grappling with a skewed sex ratio, officials suspect that numerous women from Haryana are sent to these illicit centres for sex determination tests. According to government data, Haryana reported 917 female births per 1,000 males in 2022, further emphasizing the need to crack down on such illegal activities.
