Mumbai couple seeks abortion in court
A couple in Mumbai has gone to court seeking an abortion to their foetus which has a congenital heart condition. The woman is in her 24th week of pregnancy, though the cut off for abortions by law is 20 weeks. Gynaecologists say Niketa Mehta faces health risks if the abortion is carried out, and if not, they may have a child with a life-long medical condition.
