In Images: Kolkata activists rally for legalisation of voluntary active euthanasia amid recent debate
Activists of the KAHU Advocacy Foundation gathered during a street-level awareness petition and campaign, calling for the legalisation of voluntary active euthanasia near the Victoria Memorial in Kolkata on Sunday. The campaign comes in the wake of a recent Supreme Court ruling allowing passive euthanasia in the case of Harish Rana, who was in a vegetative state for over a decade, intensifying debate in India over the legal status of assisted dying and the right to die with dignity.
