{'latest census figures sex ratio': [0, 1, 0, 0], 'fluctuating': [0, 1, 0, 0], 'india': [8, 1, 7, 13]}
sex ratio in India is declining, it means that there is a decrease in the number of females relative to males in the population. This declining trend could be a cause for concern, as it may reflect imbalances or issues related to gender discrimination, female infanticide, or sex-selective practices. However, as mentioned earlier, I don`t have access to the latest census data, so it`s important to refer to official sources for the most accurate and up-to-date information on the sex ratio in India.
