This theory has been debunked long back in our country, so you are citing the wrong judgment in support of the principle. But if you are relying on Dobbs to support that principle, then we have gone far beyond Dobbs in India, because Dobbs represents the view of the US Supreme Court that a woman has no control over her own bodily integrity.
