Though we have PC and PNDT Act for prevention of female foeticide, there are various issues of interpretation which have been addressed by the judiciary.

The article begins with the proportion of the challenge of missing female foetus The judicial stance has been tilted towards complete prohibition of sex determination even in case of surrogacy and test tube babies. Similarly public interest seems to be the thread running around the judicial precedents. Nevertheless, effectiveness of these judicial precedent lies in a change of attitude towards girl child.	en_US
