The Supreme Court legalised passive euthanasia by recognising
that a person has right for a dignified death, and also allowed to make an
advance ‘living will’ made by terminally-ill patients for passive euthanasia. A
‘living will’ is a written document by way of which a patient can give
instructions that his or her life should not be prolonged with an artificial
support system when he or she has reached an irreversible stage of terminal illness.
