Govandi

The Bombay High Court, after doctors' suggestion, denied permission to terminate advanced pregnancy of a 13-year-old Govandi-based rape survivor and allowed its continuation to term. The team of doctors had told the court that allowing or terminating the delivery at 33rd week are equally risky for the minor. However, the court has asked for the progress report of the girl who was raped by a family acquaintance in 2020.
