Question

Why is prenatal sex determination prohibited​

Answer 1

$answer$

Prenatal sex determination was banned in India in 1994. This was done aiming to prevent sex-selective abortion, which, according to the Indian Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, "has its roots in India’s long history of strong patriarchal influence in all spheres of life". Prenatal sex determination has caused the Child sex ratio to go down at alarming rates, in India, which is also another factor that led to its banning.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Prenatal sex determination has been prohibited by law because of indiscriminate female foeticide. As a result of this, child sex ratio is declining at an alarming rate in some sections of our society. For a healthy society, the female-male sex ratio must be maintained.
