Districts of India by lowest Sex Ratio - Top 10

There are grim reminders of the deep-rooted issues of gender imbalance prevalent in certain parts of India.

Leading the pack with a staggeringly low sex ratio is Daman, a district in Daman & Diu, registering a mere 534 females for every 1000 males. Such an alarmingly skewed ratio calls attention to potential societal, cultural, or administrative factors that might be at play.

The picturesque Leh in Jammu & Kashmir and the serene Tawang in Arunachal Pradesh, despite their natural beauty, bear the weight of this imbalance too. Alongside, North District in Sikkim and Dadra & Nagar Haveli, show similar trends, indicating that the challenges of gender disparity aren't confined to a single geographical belt but span across diverse terrains and cultures.

The Nicobars, part of the Andaman & Nicobar Islands, and the industrious city of Surat in Gujarat, manifest this disparity as well. Furthermore, the inclusion of Chandigarh, a modern city and a union territory, in this list signifies that urbanization doesn't necessarily correlate with balanced demographics.

The districts in this list underscore the importance of continuous efforts in female empowerment, education, and societal change. They serve as a stark reminder of the work still needed to ensure a balanced and just society where every girl is valued and given her rightful place.
