Dr Ramyasree our OBS & Gynae Guru in eGurukul is explaining the Medical Termination of Pregnancy (Amendment) Bill, 2020
Termination of pregnancy (1971): Under this Act, a pregnancy may be terminated within 12 weeks, if a registered doctor is of the opinion that: (i) continuation of the pregnancy may risk the life of the mother, or can cause grave injury to her healthiness, or (ii) there is a substantial risk that the baby, if born, would have physical or mental abnormality. For termination of pregnancy between 12 to 20 weeks, 2 registered doctors are required to give their opinion.

The Bill amends this provision to state that pregnancy can be terminated within 20 weeks, with the opinion of a registered Doctor. Approval of 2 registered medical practitioners will be required for termination of pregnancies between 20 to 24 weeks. The termination of pregnancies up to 24 weeks will only apply to specific categories of women, as prescribed by the central government. Further, the Central Government will notify the norms for the Doctor whose opinion is required for termination of the pregnancy.

Under the Act, if any pregnancy occurs as a result of failure of any device or method used by a married woman or her husband to limit the number of children, such unwanted pregnancy may constitute a grave injury to the mental health of the pregnant woman. The Bill amends this provision to replace ‘married woman or her husband’ with ‘woman or her partner’.
