ART Act 2021 | No Retroactive Age Bar for Embryos Created Pre-2022 : Punjab & Haryana HC Upholds Reproductive Rights Under Article 21
The Punjab & Haryana High Court ruled that the ART Act 2021's age limit for embryo transfer does not apply retroactively to embryos created before its enactment. The court held that denying transfer of pre-2022 embryos to a woman over 50 violates her reproductive rights under Article 21, setting a precedent for similar cases involving retroactive application of health laws.
