CHENNAI: The AIADMK government in Tamil Nadu has fulfilled one more election promise by increasing the maternity leave of government employees from six months to nine months.

"In 2011, my government increased the maternity leave from 90 days to six months. Now, the government is increasing the maternity leave from six months to nine months," chief minister J Jayalalithaa said in the assembly.

Last month, the Rajya Sabha passed an amendment bill that proposes six months' maternity leave for all working women. The Maternity
Benefit (Amendment) Bill, which is yet to be passed by the Lok Sabha, will also provide 12 weeks of maternity leave for women who adopt children and women who get babies via surrogate mothers.

>>> Is 9 months maternity leave in TN based on appx. 9 months gestation period in humans, i.e. each gestation day allowing a day in paid leave to the mother after child birth?
