	Description:		On 24th June 2022, the United States’ Supreme Court overturned the landmark Roe versus Wade judgement which gave the country’s women the right to abortion. After it was overturned, the decision caused widespread public outrage and issues like bodily autonomy, and reproductive rights of women came into the limelight once again. In this episode, Population Foundation of India’s Executive Director Poonam Muttreja joins us along with Indian Express’s Esha Roy and Udit Mishra to talk about the Roe V. Wade judgement, the extent to which its overturn could affect us, the economic implications of restricting abortion, and India’s abortion laws.
