Talk:Subhash Mukhopadhyay (physician)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Why did the government disapprove of his activities?
This article doesn't make clear why the Indian and West Bengal governments took such a negative attitude toward Dr. Mukhopadhyay's work on in vitro fertilization. I might understand if, for example, the government had religious objections to such activity but I wouldn't expect a Marxist government (as West Bengal had) to object on such grounds. I would have thought that the national and state governments would take pride in the fact that Dr. M. had placed Indian medical science in regard to IVF ahead of the USA, France, Australia, Japan and all other countries except the UK, and only a couple of months behind the UK at that. Did the government not believe he had really achieved IVF? --Metropolitan90 10:03, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
