Court: Rajasthan

Decided on: Aug-21-2003

Reported in: AIR2004Raj17; RLW2003(4)Raj2508; 2003(4)WLC687

Singh, C.J.1. It is a common sight that people who do not have dwelling places and are steeped in poverty and have come to the city to look for work for economic reasons, as a compulsion use roads and footpaths for easing themselves. This not only presents an ugly sight and creates un-hygienic conditions in the city, but it also compromised human dignity. It also hurts national pride. In catena of decisions, right to life has been construed widely. On a larger canvass, right to life, includes everything which gives meaning to life and makes it wholesome and worth living. It means much more than survival or animal existence. Article 21 of the Constitution of India in its expanded horizon embraces medley of concepts including any aspect of life, which makes life dignified.2. Therefore, the State must provide means to the citizens to live a life of dignity, a life worth living. Failure of the State to provide such a life negates Article 21 of the Constitution. In the circumstances we cons...
