| Summary, etc | Reproductive rights of women are recognized as the subset of human rights which are protected under the constitution of India and embrace immense vitality. However, its recognition in India is still trivial and are understood only in context of female feticide, pregnancy, menstrual health and bygone issues. Neglect of there productive rights of women amounts to discriminatory practices, gender inequality and deters access to reproductive health services. Various facets of reproductive health are still neglected and female genital mutilation (hereafter, FGM) is one of the challenges faced by women despite several health implications and the infringement of fundamental human rights of women, they are compelled to undergo the genital circumcision without consent. Proactive of FGM has been rooted in the Indian society under the garb of religious practices and is violating the fundamental human rights, constitutional rights and the reproductive rights of women. The economic, social and health implications of FGM not only deter woman from living in fearless society rather also threaten in attaining the sustainable development goals. Several nations had banned the proactive of FGM but India is lagging behind in the implementation of nay legislation. In the name of religions this practice is performed recklessly and the girls are being highly cicatrized due to the male chauvinist approach of the Indian society. The present paper provides an outlook on such a barbaric and inhuman proactive and endeavours to establish that FGM is not an essential part of the religion, rather an absolute violate of the reproductive and human rights of women. – Reproduced |
