Well i think its the parents decision that counts the most. They are the one's who have decided to bring the child to this world, so they are the best to decide what needs to be done. Its their decision. Now that the child has some abnormality, its not their fault. Obviously every parent would want their child to be a healthy and a normal one.Who is responsible if the child gets an heart attack during the delivery and things get more worse..? The court permits abortion before 20th week, if this is permissible then i guess in case of an abnormality in the child, it is the parents right to decide what needs to be done....... or else people should start sending cheques to these parents rather than blaming them or giving them unwanted fundas.....

Why not Anil Ambani concentrate on helping this couple??? (Instead of trying to buy some football club in UK)?

Are you helping this couple according to your capacity? If not, how do you expect someone else to do it just bcoz he is successful!!!

Agreed...
In the above said case parents should be given rights to chose whether they should give birth to child or not.
Although it should not be made a common practise but with consultation of medical & judicial authorities it should be allowed.
The consequences will be terrible.
Justice Khandeparkar observed "It is the job of the legislature to help you alter the provision. We cannot legislate the provision," my foot.
Is the court going to provide them all the financial help required throughout their future.....??? Is the court going to compensate for their mental torcher they will face throughout their life.....??? Is the court going to provide that child a good future.....???
The answer is NO. They just made a decision and ruined 3 lives. Im sure after this that couple wont dare to have another child.
I can't understand the law which is ready to destroy 3 lives to save one who is not even born......???

I agree with Gyani.
The HC is just a name for "Cause Delays" and "Move to Supreme Court" that will generally move it back to HC, and then HC will spend more time deciding.
In the case of life and death, this should have been sent straight to Supreme Court.
Further, its a foetus (for crying out loud), not a baby, not a child..
Termination should be allowed.
PS - peoplesaying dont kill the baby..I agree dont KILL "A" Baby...this isnt a baby...its a foetus...

Well said Mr. Prasad... I fully agree with you.... some orthodox people wouldn't think like this and will just post comments without giving it a thought....

hummmn, thanx for defending me.... one thing people don't think is that, the struggle that the child has to bear.... Though the parents will shower with all the happiness and joy to that child, ultimately those will get dissolved with the pain that the child faces......
