TOI reports on the Himachal Pradesh Government mulling over pre-marital HIV Test:
f parents can ask a pandit to match horoscopes of
a couple-to be, then why can't they ask for HIV/AIDS testing to secure the future of their children. In fact, I advocated these tests before marriage even during my budget speech
I think it's a valid point raised for arranged marriages where both sides are in the dark. And then it's too late and more often a child is involved. Consider these statistics..it just gets worse in some states.
The state has registered around 500 full-blown cases, with some 2,511 suspected ones. ..."But before implementing it in the state, public opinion will be taken,"
In the same breath, they have plans for killing the proposal by asking for a public opinion. What are the chances of male-dominated society accepting it? Let's not get started on the feminist talk yet..
A while back Sunayana had shared her experiences. Interesting flow of comments on the post. Also read Sakshi Juneja's views on the topic.
