On 28 July, the case of a 10-year-old girl who became pregnant after being sexually abused by her uncle hit the news in India and around the world. According to reports, the family approached the district court in Chandigarh for permission for the child to have an abortion in the first part of July. It took until 15 July for a medical board to examine the girl and submit a report on the feasibility of an abortion. Yet the feasibility of an abortion should never have been in question.
