Euthanasia and the value of life: a critical study

The theory of word ‘Euthanasia or Mercy Killing’ can be best described as ‘the newest form of death’ or ‘end of life’, which means eliminate lives or to put an end to dire suffering of “The Mentally Ill or Incurably Sick”, and years of miserable life. Euthanasia is a matter of a controversy all over the word, it is covered by decisions of court, medical practitioners, religions etc. The questions of euthanasia arise. But, like right to life as defined in Article-21, does it have a Right to Die? “Is medical help in dying a crime”. Is there a nexus between crimes of murders? The aim of this research is to find the answers of these questions. It will explore the Medical, Religious, Legal and Global perspective. This paper’s aim is to know the issue surrounding Euthanasia in relation to Right to Life (Article-21) in India and other developments in other countries.
