Female Genital Mutilation is a widespread practice in Asian, African as well as Middle East countries. The practice involves altering or cutting sensitive female genitals by using unsterilized sharp instruments, many times with a medical assistance. The purpose of such practice lies in certain customary beliefs among people which include maintaining virginity and chastity of females. However, FGM is a grave violation of human rights. It is highly discouraged and even prohibited by many nations along with global restraints created by international laws.
