Question

can the government snatch the right to life?​

Answer 1

Answer:

In a democratic country like India , govt is not supposed to do so because Right to life is one of the fundamental rights which is given to every citizen of any democratic country by birth.And a democratic government is only for the welfare of people.

But during any emergency situation in country government can impose restrictions on fundamental rights and so on Right to life.

Answer 2

Article 21 of Indian Constitution cannot be suspended during emergency because it states that no person shall be deprived of his life or personal liberty except according to procedure state by law. Under Menka Gandhi (1978) case the supreme court held that the procedure must not be arbitrary, unfair or unreasonable.
