Reproductive freedom in India is locked in a heartbreakingly ironic paradox. As the Supreme Court gets more protective of bodily autonomy, actual laws in states become even more controlling and punitive.

Abstract
The Supreme Court’s decision in Sita Soren v. Union of India (2024) marks a significant development in India’s constitutional jurisprudence by overruling P.V. Narasimha Rao v. State (1998).
