India’s government has
instructed fertility clinics not to allow foreigners to use local surrogate
mothers to bear children as it seeks to impose tighter limits on a growing
industry that has raised concerns about the exploitation of women. In the Month
of October a government body, said Surrogacy Services could be
provided only to married Indian couples. The availability of medical
infrastructure and potential surrogates, combined with international demand,
has fueled the growth of the industry. Surrogate mothers receive medical,
nutritional and overall health care through surrogacy agreements.
Excellent medical
facilities, convenience in approach, abundant information on the Internet, favorable
legal position and economic viability has immensely positioned India as a
preferred destination for international surrogacy arrangements. With the
passage of time, India has positioned itself as a pioneer in Surrogacy
Arrangements, helping thousands of couple achieving parenthood. The process of
surrogacy is no more closed as it used to be earlier and much information is
available even in the online space about surrogacy arrangements in India.
The desire to procreate is
a very fundamental attribute of the human race. Sadly though, many are denied
the joy of parenthood due to several reasons, biological or otherwise. With the
developments in reproductive sciences and technologies the barriers to
parenthood are no longer as formidable as they once were. Over the years,
surrogacy has evolved as a much-preferred mode of bringing a child into this
world, for childless couples who cannot biologically afford it otherwise.
India, in particular has seen a rise in the recourse to Surrogacy as an ideal technique
for childless couples to enjoy the pleasures of parenthood. The only
impediments the system faces now relate to the legal tangles that manifest it
in the various phases of the process involved.
