Unsafe Pregnancy

An unsafe abortion is "the termination of unwanted pregnancy by a person lacking the necessary skills or in an environment lacking minimal medical infrastructure & standards, or both." Forty-two million pregnancies are voluntarily terminated each year, of which 22 million are within the legal system and 20 million are outside the legal system. In the latter case, abortions are performed by untrained personnel or in unsanitary conditions.

 

World Health Organization recognizes unsafe abortion as a major preventable public health problem. This is mainly due to unmet family planning needs, contraceptive failure, lack of information about contraception, and lack of access to safe abortion services (both medical and surgical).

Abortion Laws in India

Abortion is legal in India since 1971, but over the years authorities have imposed stringent rules on the issue of termination of pregnancies because of the abortion of millions of female fetuses. Traditionally, Indians prefer boys to daughters. Last year, the government amended the Abortion Act (MTP) to allow multiple categories of women to request an abortion between the 20th and 24th week.

 

The SC court ruled that under India's Abortion Act, 1971 (MTP Act) and related regulations, every woman, regardless of marital status is entitled to safe and legal abortion. India's Supreme Court has ruled that all women, including unmarried women, can have abortions for up to 24 weeks.
