Hi. I'm doing some research, internet style.

I'm attempting to discover the Hindu position on abortion. Are
abortions legal? When is a fertilized egg considered a separate
being? How many abortions are performed a year among Hindus?

I'm not here to criticize, I'm just gathering information.

TIA.
