That is a tricky question Maddy.. but atleast Kerala is not killing its girls since the girls are are able to stand on their feet or the men folks dont mind them earning. Or the men folks are too lazy to either stop the girls from earning or kill them....
ahh.. i have no idea...
does it have to do with 100% literacy and hence the girls getting the education to earn?
