About the Book

Abortion has been and is the most controversial matter related to women health and rights. Countries around the world have extremely divergent views when it comes to the legality of the subject matter. Though in last few years the countries worldwide have liberalized their abortion laws and have given it legal recognition yet many countries have a restrictive view citing ethical reasons. There is an ongoing debate, whether the countries should allow the procedure without restriction or with restrictions considering the physical and mental health of the woman as well as economic or social reasons pertaining to the situation of the pregnant woman. India made the abortion laws liberal on 1971 by enacting MTP Act which was designed to create certain exceptions to the strict provisions of IPC which declare that all abortions, miscarriage are criminal unless they are undertaken to save the life of a pregnant woman.
