Abstract

The article critically examines the Assisted Reproductive Technology (Regulation) Act 2021, its development process spanning 15 years, and its potential shortcomings in addressing the needs of India's 27 million infertile couples. By scrutinizing the recommendations presented in the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Health and Family Welfare's 129th report, the critique argues that the Act may not effectively cater to the diverse reproductive rights of the population. The article claims that most of its suggestions are in opposition to redefining families and accepting inclusive family structures other than heterosexual marriages. The study posits that the Act, with its inherent limitations, perpetuates the reinforcement of patriarchal family structures that medical science intends to disrupt. In order to foster inclusivity and comprehensibility, the article advocates for necessary amendments that align with the interest of the general populace.

2021 年辅助生殖技术（监管）法案》：批判与争议。

文章批判性地审视了《2021 年辅助生殖技术（管理）法案》、其长达 15 年的发展过程，以及在满足印度 2 700 万不孕夫妇需求方面可能存在的不足。通过仔细研究卫生与家庭福利议会常务委员会第 129 号报告中提出的建议，该评论认为该法案可能无法有效地满足人口的各种生殖权利。文章称，委员会的大部分建议都与重新定义家庭和接受异性婚姻以外的包容性家庭结构背道而驰。研究认为，《法案》因其固有的局限性，使父权制家庭结构得到了永久性的强化，而医学科学正是要打破这种结构。为了促进包容性和可理解性，文章主张进行必要的修订，以符合大众的利益。
