The Right to Live wiith Dignity is Fundamental

THE RIGHT TO LIVE WITH DIGNITY IS FUNDAMENTAL!


The Supreme Court of India has recently held that the “Right to die with
Dignity” is a Fundamental Right, enforceable against the State.
The “Right to Die with Dignity” is an inalienable part of the “Right to Live with
Dignity” both of which can be exercised by an individual. The Supreme Court has
also held that the right of the individual to “die with dignity” takes precedence
over the interest of the State in preserving the sanctity of life, which has to do
with the autonomy of the individual and the right to self-determination.
Now, that being my right – that I can choose not to live and die a dignified life
without sufferings under my inalienable right. Conversely, I can “self-determine”
to “Live a Dignified Life” under the “Right to Live with Dignity”. Living in fear
is not a dignified life, and in exercise of my inalienable right to a dignified life as
well as to preserve the sanctity of my life, I can choose to bear arms in my
person so that I may live a dignified life without fear, exactly as I choose to end
my life and die a dignified death without pain or sufferings.
