"The town of Anand in India was featured on the National Geographic channel last night as the surrogate mother capital of the world.
"Many childless couples from US, UK and Australia came here to rent a womb from one of the Indian surrogate mothers.
"This is legal in India and the town of Anand has 300 mothers who are willing to rent out their womb.
"The surrogates are paid about $10,000 and a monthly stipend.
"This is a win-win situation as the childless couple become proud parents albeit in a quiet unobtrusive way.
"The poor Indian mother gets paid for her labour."
