    Answer : Option B

    Explanation :

    Choice (a) does not state that every other country considers abortion as illegal. There is a possibility that there are some countries which treat abortion legal. Hence (a) does not go against the judgement. 

    If choice (b) is true, the judgement of the court goes against the fundamental rights. This makes the court's judgement untenable. Hence (b) goes against the supreme court judgement.
