Q1. Which country became the world’s first country to make abortion a constitutional right? Choose the most appropriate option from below.
A Malaysia
B Poland
C France Correct
D Holland
Explanation
France became the first country to explicitly protect the freedom to have an abortion in its Constitution, a development reported in 2024 and relevant to this paper’s current-affairs context. Malaysia has not made abortion a constitutional right. Poland is known for restrictive abortion laws rather than constitutional protection. Holland, commonly used for the Netherlands in such options, has liberal abortion access, but it was not the first country to constitutionalise it. Therefore, the answer retained by the official key is France.
