PRENATAL DIAGNOSIS IS A MEDICAL TECHNOLOGY – Not a reality In india
Journal Title: Advance Research Journal of Multidisciplinary Discoveries - Year 2017, Vol 17, Issue 9
Abstract
Sex determination is illegal in India, there must be tampered means with the medical assistance available with the advancing technology. Women tend to live longer if given equal care and nutrition like the men. Even then, the men outnumber the women where the sex-ratio is not equal today. This has several effects not only upon the natural balance but also seeks to put the health of the women at risk. The value of a woman is realized with her ability to give birth to a son only still in countries like India. Medical advances through the advent of the USG Technology have made the tasks of the corrupters quite easier. Some demographers question whether sex-selective abortion or infanticide claims are accurate, because underreporting of female births may also explain high sex ratios. Female foeticide has been linked to the arrival, in the early 1990s, of affordable ultrasound technology and its widespread adoption in India. The focus of the paper is on how the technology is being misused every time to kill the girl child at the womb itself often without the consent of the mother. This is solely for the illogical preference for sons over their daughters. Pre-Conception and Pre Natal Diagnostics Techniques Act,1994was formulated to put a check on the tendency to brutally kill the fetus at the womb. This makes the people dependent on the medical professionals and but unfortunately at times it has been possible to tamper their views against money defying all rules of nature with the help of technology.
