First of nice post, you guys are impressive, keep up the spirit 👏

Well we have discussed root this topic is focusing before but nice way of presenting.

IMO euthanasia is situational and based on circumstances. Mostly I would discourage it. 😊

If medical reasons, should be allowed, if someone is in a pain excruitiating enough and has no forseable hope of a cure, nobody should be allowed to tell them to suck it up and live with it

I am all for Euthanasia with CONSENT.. If it puts a man out of misery when he has no hope left..
However, Indian Law considers it SUICIDE which is illegal... Allowing Euthanasia would practically amount to encouraging suicide.. though from the humanitarian point of view it makes sense to allow Euthanasia..

After all... Article 21 of the Indian Constitution gurantees Right to Life... The question is... Does Right to Life mean a Right to Die?

PS - Sensitive topic, no my personal views just a debate.

This topic focuses on (God Forbidd) individuals who are suffering for terminal illness or see no value on continue living.

Don't they have right to end thier life? Why to burden loving one's, bigger picture society ?

I am one who definitely would want to call Dr. Kevorkian to put me out of misery and let me go. I do not prefer to be a burden to my loved ones. I don't want to suffer nor I want my loved ones to suffer b/c of me and my terminal illness.

1 Euthanasia would not only be for people who are "terminally ill" (questioning the definition of the term)
2 Euthanasia can become a means of health care cost containment
(questioning HMO / insurance agencies)
3 Euthanasia will become non-voluntary (questioning motives of care-takers)
4 Euthanasia is a rejection of the importance and value of human life (sort of anti-abortion issue)

I think I had already started this topic when I was new at DM Anshu Bhaiyya..which in turn was a repeat cus it had already been discussed before

If the person suffering or in excruciating pain everyday cant take it anymore and no medical help is making living life easy, maybe then, one should be given the right to end their life. Sounds practically and technically correct.

Emotionally...for the near n dear ones, its a totally different ball game. They will not be able to live with the decision cus it isnt easy to just let your loved one quit on life inspite of all odds and helplessness. You keep hoping something will happen, maybe tomorrow is a different day with a different hope or solution. Its a very tough call, extremely tough for the ones who will live to see it happen
