The central government on Tuesday opposed the inclusion of live-in and same-sex couples within the purview of the Surrogacy Act, saying it would encourage "misuse" of the rules, reported LiveLaw. In an additional affidavit filed in the Supreme Court, the Centre defended the decision to keep such couples outside the ambit of both the Surrogacy Act and the Assisted Reproductive Act.
