As very rightly stated in a quotation by 19th Century British Politician Lord Acton that power corrupts but absolute power corrupts absolutely. In India, to ensure that the concept of ‘absolute power’ does not take over, it is divided among three organs of the government- the Legislature, the Executive and the Judiciary. This division of powers results in the balance of functioning of these organs of the government. These three pillars to the Indian government works within their arena wherein the role of the Legislature is to make laws, the role of the Executive includes the implementation of the laws made by the Legislature but the Judiciary acts as a Watchdog for both the Executive and Legislature. The Judiciary ensures that no law passed by the Legislature is implemented by the Executive that takes away, in any manner, the rights of the individual or the citizens which are guaranteed by the Constitution. Article 13(2) of the Indian Constitution states that the State shall not make any law which takes away or abridges the rights conferred by this Part (Part III of the Constitution) and any law made in contravention of this clause shall, to the extent of contravention, be void. And it is because of this Article that the Judiciary remains vigilant for the purpose of keeping a check on the validity of these laws.

Amidst the growing concerns for the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, thousands of farmers brave the cold and the police blockades to protest and voice their disapproval of the newly enacted farm laws by the Central Government. The laws have been deemed to be revolutionary by the Central Government and have been advocated as long sought reforms in the agricultural sector. The laws, when read together, focus on a shift from the decades old APMC controlled Mandi system to the one dominated by market forces. They open the gates for corporates and finance houses to enter the agricultural sector, hoping to change the lives of millions who depend on farming and the allied activities. The three laws have faced challenges form the very onset. They were first challenged on being promulgated through ordinance route, then on their fragile constitutionality as against the spirit of cooperative federalism and are finally being opposed as against the best interests of the most important stakeholders of the sector i.e. the farmers. In this background, this paper firstly defines the provisions the three laws provide and explains the vision, when the three laws are read together. The focus then shifts to speculate on the how the laws will bring about constructive changes to the India’s agrarian sector while also arguing against the provisions and implementation of the Acts. The paper also provides insight into the constitutionality of the Acts and discusses the possible solutions and measures ahead.

On March 7, 2011, the Supreme Court of India SCI delivered a progressive judgement with far-reaching implications for euthanasia in India. The 110-page document written by Justice Markandey Katju begins with a quote from Mirza Ghalib: “Marte hain arzoo mein marne ki, maut aati hai par nahi aati.” (We perish with the wish to die / Death mocks, but it will not arrive.) The line amazingly encompasses the dilemma behind the issue presented in the case. Justice Katju then goes on to include a careful analysis of legal opinions from across the world before opining that passive euthanasia can be practiced legally in India. The judgement is a beautiful read; it carries the reader on the journey of the Indian judiciary deliberating in the battle of morality against mortality, and dignity against death. Predictably, India resorted to its usual stance of bewildered obstreperousness when time came to actually decide on the issue of right to life equating to the right to die. However, the contents of the judgement touched on every delicate and controversial topic related to euthanasia, sparking a fairly predictable shouting match with opposing arguments carrying the power of logic, as well as the dead weight of sanctimonious posturing. The article talks about the bravery that oozes from the judgement and how language has been smartly used to present liberal opinions on whether right to life includes a concomitant right to die.
Keywords: Article 21, Constitution, Euthanasia.
