It is more painful to see your loved ones in pain, praying each day for their peaceful exit from this world for once and for all than to see them dying each day slowly.
Quicker the end lesser will be the diseased person's trauma and grief and pain of his near and dear ones.
However the laws have to be framed in a proper way as it is possible that in connivance with doctors many a normal patient will also be subjected to euthanasia route for ulterior motives. A society which kills girls at birth or before with impunity will not think twice of misusing euthanasia to kill elders through the hospital route.
A very valid point ..a law which is applicable to all will not work here..instead each case should be looked at and dealt with objectivity and not generalized. Looking at the severity of the ailment proper law should be laid down.
That's the minimum the law framers are supposed to ensure. Opportunitiists and law abusers look for the lose ends in the law. The lose ends are to be tied.
Otherwise we will soon see a quick decline of the elderly population..law abusers can weave numerous stories to shrug off parental responsibility using euthanasia as their weapon.
A significant number of Indians are not afraid to'kill' unwanted persons whether young or old- after all a dip in the Ganga will cleanse them. So euthanasia is bound to be misused again by the educated class.

Dip in the holy river Ganga will not cleanse anyone of misdeeds or sins instead can infect you with numerous skin infections and stomach ailments.
“A mistake is a crash-course in learning” – Billy Anderson
Eiuthanasia is a genuine right of a suffering patient to die. Like any other good things it may also be abused. It's up yo the law makers to see that a law is framed where there is no scope for abuse. I know this is also difficult as Crime walks two steps ahead of law.. Criminals are more creative than our law makers.
