ABSTRACT

Human Rights are those rights, which should be available to every individual without any discrimination of any kind. While discussions about abortion often focus on the rights of a mother or unborn child, there have been efforts to elevate fathers' rights in abortion decisions through notice requirements where the fathers or the husbands rights are always being neglected, the states as well do not recognise the rights of the husband in case of abortion. Fathers are generally liable to provide financially for the needs of the child despite their wish of remaining childless, in some cases. The researcher has done an empirical research with a sample size of 200 out of convenience sampling method. The findings of the research this particular research shows that people agree to the fact that husbands rights in case of abortion should be recognised by the government and Females should not be given the right to abort solely where we should focus on sexual equality in childbearing and abortion whereby  the consent of the husband should be considered. The researcher has given certain suggestions noted to overcome the denial of the rights of the husbands or fathers in abortion. That’s finally concludes this research paper by stating that the government should recognise the rights of husband as well in abortion and should not be left neglected or ignored.

KEY WORDS: Abortion, husbands right, sexual equality, neglected, rights, recognition.
