(i) *** ratio is defined as the number of females per 1000 males in the population.
(ii) This information is an important social indicator to measure the extent of equality between males and females in a society at a given time.
(iii) The *** ratio in the country has always remained unfavourable to females. It means that the number of females per 1000 males has always remained low in our country. This is clear from the following table:
India: *** Ratio 1951−2001

Census Years *** Ratio
(Females per 1000 males)
1951 946
1961 941
1971 930
1981 934
1991 929
2001 933

In countries like India *** ratio is calculated as number of females per thousand of males.
