The Supreme Court has upheld the decision of the Punjab and
Haryana High Court and dismissed a man's petition seeking damages from his
estranged wife for undergoing abortion without his consent, and ruled that an
adult woman had an unimpeachable right to give birth or terminate pregnancy.
Earlier the man filed a plea in the High Court terming the abortion, to which
he had objected, ‘illegal’, the husband had also demanded compensation from the
woman's parents and brother, and two doctors.
