Unreported Killers of Unborn – a Case Report Bhullar D.S. Dr.1 1Lecturer, Govt Medical College, Patiala, Punjab Abstract The Medical Termination of Pregnancy Act, 1971 and the Pre-conception and Pre-natal Diagnostic Techniques (Prohibition of Sex Selection) Act, 1994 are the two legal deterrents made under constitution to curtail illegal abortions and the heinous crime of female feticide. From the unofficial observations, the said legal provisions have started showing the desired results due to sensitization of the qualified medical professionals but there is still a class of undeclared, illegal or unqualified medical professionals actively engaged in misusing different methods to procure illegal abortions in pregnant mothers and a setback to the very purpose for which these acts came in force. Top Keywords Septicemic shock, Spontaneous abortion, Calatropis gigantic, MTP Act 1971, PNDT Act 1994, Female Foeticide, Mifepriston. Top |
