Despite the centrality of abortion as an option for fertility control
it remains severely under-studied partly due to the fact that it is
illegal and socially unaccepted. The present study was conducted
in a Punjabi village to understand those conditions which makes
abortion an inevitable choice for women. The study relied on
anthropological methods mainly through narrative interviews that
were undertaken with sixty abortion seekers women. The field
findings indicate that women decided to terminate their
pregnancies for various reasons such as poverty, unintended,
premarital and closely spaced pregnancies etc. The study suggests
that women’s reproductive rights must be acknowledged and
prioritized.
