We are all aware of what the term means, in case some of us do not, here I paste the Wikipedia definition:
"Euthanasia is the practice of intentionally ending a life in order to relieve pain and suffering."
Here is the word of law on Euthanasia in India (Pasted from Wikipedia:
"<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euthanasia#Passive_and_active_euthanasia" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Euthanasia Passive And Active Euthanasia</a> is legal in India.<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legality_of_euthanasia#cite_note-21" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Legality Of Euthanasia Cite Note 21</a> On 7 March 2011 the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supreme_Court_of_India" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Supreme Court Of India</a> legalised passive euthanasia by means of the withdrawal of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Life_support" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Life Support</a> to patients in a <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permanent_vegetative_state" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Permanent Vegetative State</a>.<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legality_of_euthanasia#cite_note-Hindu1-22" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Legality Of Euthanasia Cite Note Hindu1 22</a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legality_of_euthanasia#cite_note-23" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Legality Of Euthanasia Cite Note 23</a> Forms of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euthanasia" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Euthanasia</a>, including the administration of lethal compounds, are illegal.<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legality_of_euthanasia#cite_note-LA-times-24" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Legality Of Euthanasia Cite Note La Times 24</a>
I would like to know where we stand on this. Should active euthanasia be legal too?
