It's very sad. In fact, the only state in India where there are more women than men (which is the natural state in most everywhere in the world) is Kerala, the state I'm from. I believe this is because the state has been run by the Communists for most of its post-independant history (which has also resulted in a 99% female literacy rate, again by far the highest in India). Sometimes we forget about the social benefits communism has provided in certain parts of the world. I have no doubt, for example, that Afghanistan would be far healthier, wealthier and more advanced today if the Russians were not driven out in the 80s.
