SC WAS HEARING A CASE WHEREIN A TAMIL NADU GOVT SCHOOL TEACHER WAS DENIED MATERNITY LEAVE FOR HER THIRD CHILD
NEW DELHI: Maternity leave is integral to maternity benefits and reproductive rights are now recognised as part of international human rights law like right to health, privacy, equality and non-discrimination and dignity, the Supreme Court said on Friday.
Setting aside a Madras high court judgment declining maternity leave to a Tamil Nadu government school teacher, the top court ruled that a woman is entitled to maternity benefits for her third biological child, observing that the laudable object of population control of the state that restricts maternity leave for up to two children should be read harmoniously with the beneficial law under the Maternity Benefits Act.
