New Delhi (Abantika Ghosh/India Express) : The directorate general of health services (DGHS) has proposed that
the option of surrogacy should be available only to married, infertile
couples of Indian origin.
The suggestions forwarded by DGHS Dr Jagdish Prasad to the
department of health research rule out surrogacy options for foreigners,
unless they are married to a person of Indian origin. The suggestions
also say that a woman may become a surrogate mother only once in her
lifetime.
The health ministry, which is engaged in a tussle with the
Planning Commission on NGO consultations over a law to regulate the
"infertility" industry, has circulated a cabinet note on the Assisted
Reproductive Technologies (ART) Bill. The DGHS is an arm of the
ministry.
