SC order on sex tests

NEW DELHI, JAN. 29. The Supreme Court today directed all States to confiscate ultrasound machines used to determine the sex of the foetus in clinics running without a licence.

``State Governments are directed to take immediate action if such machines were being used in clinics without licence. The machines are to be seized and sealed for the time being,'' a three-judge Bench comprising Justice M. B. Shah, Justice B. N. Agrawal and Justice Arijit Pasayat said.
