PARSIS CONSIDER SURROGACY TO BOOST POPULATION

Mumbai  (By Jyoti Shelar, Mumbai Mirror) : Ultra orthodox in the community are debating if scriptures allow renting of a non-Parsi womb.

Parsis are considering the option of surrogacy under the government funded Jiyo Parsi scheme to boost the community's dwindling population. While a high priest who was consulted on the idea has given a conditional nod stating that the egg and the sperm has to be of the Parsi couple, the ultra orthodox in the community are debating over the rightness of renting a womb.
