The choice to give birth to a foetus, abort it or conceive a baby is a woman’s right, said a judge of the Indian Supreme Court.
According to Indian media, the judge a baby grows in a woman’s body hence it is her right to decide on conceiving and keeping a foetus.
The judge said this while speaking during a symposium at Jindal Global University.
A few days back the Indian Supreme Court had allowed a 22-year-old woman from Mumbai to terminate a 24-week pregnancy after doctors told her the foetus was malformed and could harm the mother’s life, Hindustan Times reported.
