People think they can go to USA or UK and earn millions of dollars. But common sense is available only in India. Here, pregnant or no, if complained of stomach pain, she would have been given some spoons of Digene or Rantac tabs
Looks like the incident was a reality and adoption shock for Indians: 1. Indians must respect the law of the land and adapt, abide by the rules of the country they live.
2. Indian are the worst in respecting life: every day hundreds of people killed either through abortion, rape and murder, female foeticide, dowry, accident, throwing away new born babies...life means nothing in India.
3. This couple were free to make a choice to go off to England if desired. Ignorance killed Savita.

@ bigtribe ".... Indians must respect the law of the land and adapt, abide by the rules of the country they live...."
I think this also applies to you. I read your comments during the Assam riots where you were supporting the riotous acts of illegal Bangadeshi muslim migrants.
It is a wrong idea for Indians to assume that medical services are excellent in the developed countries. In USA even with medical insurance one can be charged with hundreds of Dollars of cost, and the hospitals will refuse to treat unless one can pay upfront. In Britain, ordinary doctor may refuse to send the patient to a hospital ( one cannot go directly except in the case of accidents), ambulance may not come, hospital may give you a date after six months, which means people can die without treatment. This is the experience of my wife, who is still alive only because she took the right decision to come back to India immediately when the hosptal asked her wait for 6 months, when she had blood cloting on the legs. According to my experience, only in Japan and in some European countries ( if you have enough money) you can get proper treatment.
Even in a right crazy country such as U.S., abortion is allowed in rare cases such as rape, incest and if the life of the mother is at risk. I don't know why the Ireland should be any different. Just imagine, if an Irish lady was refused abortion in India and dies, on religious grounds, what an uproar it would have created here and abroad. The sense of double standard is appaling.
