According to Article 21 of the Indian Constitution “No person shall be deprived from the Right to life or Personal liberty “. But there is a long debate going on that Euthanasia which is Mercyfull killing or to be more specific Right to die with dignity should also be included in Article 21.
First, I would like to highlight the Fact that Euthanasia and Suicide are to different concepts. Suicide as per section 309 of Indian Constitution is a criminal offense where is Euthanasia is basically demanding a dignified death with the help of a drug or Physician.
What I personally believe is Euthanasia should not be included in Article 21 as Article 21 talks about the Right of every individual to live with dignity in a society, including Right to dignified death in the same article would be conflicting. Also the People demanding Euthanasia shall be given Proper Treatment or Medicare instead of killing them.
What If Euthanasia becames Fundamental Right and Every other individual suffering from anxiety start demanding it, that would have deadly consequences on our society, Economy, will also disturb the Human ratio,Not only this much questions will also be put on on our medical or health industries.
A person who is depressed, has anxiety or is mentally stressed needs outmost care. Killing them is not a solution.
