Supreme Court says 'No' to forced pregnancy, 'Yes' to girl's choice!
India's Supreme Court just made a big decision, saying a 15-year-old girl can end her over seven-month pregnancy. The judges, Justices B V Nagarathna and Ujjal Bhuyan, were super clear: no one, especially a minor, should be forced to carry a baby they don't want. They said it would cause too much mental and physical pain. They even rejected the idea of making her give birth and then giving the baby up for adoption, saying the pregnant woman's choice is way more important. Basically, they put the girl's well-being first, saying her wishes can't be ignored for a baby yet to be born.
