Aamir Khan Meets Gehlot On The Female Foetcide Issue

Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot on Wednesday assured actor Aamir Khan, whose TV show Satyamev Jayate on female foeticide has created a storm, that he will take up the issue of a fast track court with the state chief justice so that justice was expedited.
Addressing the media with Aamir by his side, Gehlot said the widely lauded show had brought reality to the forefront.
“I am moved by Aamir’s programme and his gesture. I will definitely take up the issue and speak to the chief justice of Rajasthan to find a way,” he said.
In his show, Aamir highlighted the story of a sting operation done seven years back by two Jaipur journalists to expose increasing female foeticide cases in Madhya Pradesh, Gujarat, Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh.
The sting by Meena Sharma and Shripal Shaktawat had covered 140 doctors involved in sex determination tests and abortions. None of the doctors has been penalized.
