This Country Is Decriminalising Female Genital Mutilation: What Is FGM? Is It Legal In India?

Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) remains a contentious issue globally, with Gambia's National Assembly voting to lift a 2015 ban, potentially legalizing this harmful practice. FGM, practiced in about 30 countries, is often justified by social acceptance and religion but has no medical benefits, causing only harm. The UNICEF reports that at least 230 million girls and women have undergone FGM, predominantly in Africa. Reversing the ban in Gambia could set a dangerous precedent, undermining years of efforts to protect girls and women from this traumatic and irreversible practice. #endfgm #stopfgm ____________________________________________ Bringing you stories that matter to our generation.
