From the news of deaths of women in karnataka it can be clearly said that in India family planning is totally a womens burden ,it is totally a pure violation of womens right .In Karnataka, more than 99 per cent of those who underwent sterilisation during 2013-2014 were women, while men accounted for a miniscule 0.44 per cent. This is not only in keeping with the national trend, but it has been prevailing over the years. The fact that men get nearly double the incentive for undergoing the surgery has not worked as an incentive for them. Women get Rs. 600 (BPL category) and Rs. 250 (for APL category) for sterilisation, while men get Rs. 1,100 in any category. According to the Department of Health and Family Welfare, male participation in family planning (permanent method or no-scalpel vasectomy- NSV) on an average is as low as 0.617 p.c. Only four districts in the State have recorded around 100 vasectomies in 2013-2014.
