Bikram S. Sidhu – GLAS Law Firm recognizes the profound significance of the Pre-Conception and Pre-Natal Diagnostic Techniques (PCPNDT) Act, 1994, as a cornerstone for ensuring ethical medical practices and fostering a healthy society. This Act stands as a bulwark against the deeply concerning issue of sex selection and its devastating consequences. Our firm is deeply committed to empowering individuals and healthcare providers to navigate the intricate landscape of the PCPNDT Act and uphold its vital principles.
Enacted to address the alarming decline in India’s sex ratio, the PCPNDT Act serves as a formidable deterrent against the misuse of prenatal diagnostic techniques for sex selection, a practice that tragically often results in female feticide. The Act meticulously regulates the employment of technologies such as ultrasound scans, ensuring their utilization solely for legitimate medical purposes, such as detecting genetic abnormalities, metabolic disorders, and congenital malformations.
