ABSTRACT
Demography and population geography include many qualitative aspects. One qualitative indicator that has proven crucial in socioeconomic planning at various planning levels is the sex ratio. This article explores the development of the sex ratio throughout place and time. The research relies on census records from a number of different years. In a quantitative analysis based on census data, we see a downward trend in the sex ratio over several census cycles. The entire Jhajjar district, which was surveyed, shows a declining sex ratio. The results reveal a ’cause-effect relationships’ of decreasing trends of sex ratio throughout various time periods. Finally, some constructive proposals were made to increase the district’s positive sex-ratio, which would benefit not only the Jhajjar area but all of Haryana.
