About the Competition
School of Business & Law, Navrachana University is conducting a National Opinion Writing Competition 2021 on Constitution Day.
Right to Life is one of the basic as well as a fundamental right without which other rights cannot be enjoyed. But, if the person has a right to life, the question arises whether the same person can also exercise his right to die. Especially during the pandemic, we have noticed an enormous death doll in India during the second wave.
Hundreds of unaccounted corpses had been found in the river Ganga which has been burned and buried without any cremation rituals. Hence, in the present time, it is very important for us to evaluate whether the Indian Citizens can exercise the right to die with dignity.
Topic
‘Right to die with dignity: A Fundamental Right?’
