HealthDelhi High Court Rules Disability Alone Can't Deny Reproductive Autonomy
The Delhi High Court ruled that disability alone cannot justify denying reproductive autonomy or approving removal of reproductive organs. The court emphasized that surgical interventions like hysterectomy should only be performed based on medical experts' advice, prioritizing the individual's welfare and dignity. This decision came during a plea by parents seeking hysterectomy for their differently-abled daughter who struggles with menstrual management.
