  • After all as an individual, you decide where to marry, you decide where to work, and at the last hurdle of your life, you should be allowed to choose how do you want to end your life.

  • The Bible says, “Thou shalt not kill” And even Islam does not allow anyone to take away life.
  • We have cases, where doctors are often beaten up if the patient was not treated properly, what would happen to a doctor if he merely suggested Euthanasia to the relatives? Will the relatives be able to understand the suffering of the patient?
  • Some people feel we don’t choose when to be born and we should not be given the right to choose when to die.

should euthanasia be made legal in India? - 0 views

  • Euthanasia is self-imposed killing; it is a mercy killing, when there is not a slightest chance of endurance
  • Hence, from this perspective, keeping a patient under torment and unnecessary pain seems pointless. Therefore, in this case euthanasia is the most practical cure, and this is possible only if euthanasia is made legal in India.
  • When these patients want to give up their lives, they know deep within them that they are living on false hopes of survival and that there is not even a small ray of hope for further improvement.
