PNDT AND MTP
Child sex ratio has been adversely
affected by the practice of Pr- conception and Pre- natal Sex selection. The Pr-
conception and Pre- natal diagnostic techniques Act (PC and PNDT Act) enacted in
1994 seeks to address this problem legally. It is the end product of extensive
deliberations among all stake holders i.e. the peoples representatives, medical
practitioners and the civil society. The PNDT Act focuses on the need to
eliminate the illegal practice of sex determination and female foeticide and
echoes the collective concern of the people’s representative and the civil
society.
