                                            Sir,
                                                            I   am  directed  to  refer  to  the  fifth  report  on  the  Parliamentary  Committee  on 
                                            Empowerment of Women for the year 2021-22.  Extract from  Para  8.iv of the  report,  has 
                                            been reproduced as below :-
                                                           “The Committee find that over the last 25 years, only 617 convictions were given out 
                                                           of  3158  Court  Cases  registered  under  Pre-Conception  and  Pre-Natal  Diagnostic 
                                                           Techniques Act, 1994 (PC & PNDT Act) and Rajasthan and Maharashtra which have 
                                                           recorded the  lowest  Sex  Ratio  at  Birth,  871  and  880  respectively,  in  2016-18  are 
                                                           having the highest number of court case/police case pending i.e. 604 and 753. The 
                                                           Committee  also  find  that  in  18  out  of  36  States/UTs  have  neither  got  any  case 
                                                           registered  or  have  any  convictions  so  far.  The  Committee  has  every  reason  to 
                                                           believe that the delay in arriving at final decision in the pending cases has a tendency 
                                                           to dilute the spirit of PC&PNDT Act. Therefore, the Committee in no uncertain words 
                                                           recommend that the Ministry should make ali out efforts in consonance with all other 
                                                           concerned Ministries so that the finality is reached in such pending cases within six 
                                                           months.”
                                            2.             As  observed  by  the  Parliamentary  Committee,  it  is  requested  that  necessary 
                                            instructions may be issued to all concerned to take appropriate action  in cases registered 
                                            under PC&PNDT Act so that conviction rate in such cases may improve, at the earliest.
                                                                                                                                                                                                              Yours’ faithfully,
