As we have already studied in Medical Termination of Pregnancy (MTP) -
The Medical Termination of Pregnancy (Amendment) Act, 2017 was enacted by the Government of India to reduce the incidences of illegal abortion.
According to this Act, a pregnancy may be terminated on certain considered grounds within the first 12 weeks of pregnancy on the opinion of one registered medical practitioner.
If pregnancy lasted for more than 12 weeks but less than 24 weeks, two registered medical practitioners must be of the opinion.
