Legal principles of euthanasia: a comparative analysis between different nations

Euthanasia is one of the most divisive topics in the world, many nations and religious people oppose it since it goes against their religious beliefs. India is no exception. Hinduism contends that the soul is indestructible and has its roots. A similar belief held by Muslims is that life should only cease at Allah's order and that doing so is evil. Christians also hold that humans shouldn't enter God's domain of life and death since doing so has other unethical implications. However, in some instances, it is asserted in contemporary culture, it is appropriate to give someone the option to choose death. Everyone has the right to life, according to both Article 3 of the 1948 International Declaration of Human Rights and Article 21 of the Indian Constitution. Although it is always up for judicial review and depends on the situation, the right to die is identical to other components of the right to life. It's common to hear people refer to euthanasia as “mercy killing” or “good dying.” Others argue that in some circumstances, a person should be given the option to choose death rather than being forced to live. We have the right to live a decent life and are expected to endure difficult situations rather than giving up. This study tries to define the issue of euthanasia, examine the legality in various jurisdictions, and conduct a comparative analysis of the legal norms.
