Right to Legal Aid-A Constitutional Commitment 

  • Legal aid is free legal assistance to the poor and weaker sections of the society with the object to enable them to exercise the rights given to them by law.               
  • The preamble of the Constitution secures to its citizen, social, economic and political justice. 
  • Article 14 of the Constitution makes it clear that the State shall not deny to any person equality before law or the equal protection of the laws within the territory of India.
  • Articles 38 and 39, of the Constitution of India lay down clear mandate in this regard.  According to Article 38 (1) the State shall strive to promote the welfare of the people by securing and protecting as effectively as it may a social order in which justice, social, economic or political, shall inform all the institutions of the national life.
  • Article 39-A directs the State to ensure that the operation of the legal system promotes justice on a basis of equal opportunity and shall, in particular, provide free legal aid by suitable legislation or schemes or in any other way, to ensure that opportunities for securing justice are not denied to any citizen by reason of economic or other disabilities.
  • Right to free legal aid or free legal service is an essential fundamental right guaranteed by the Constitution. It forms the basis of reasonable, fair and just liberty under Article 21 of the Constitution of India, which says, “No person shall be deprived of his life or personal liberty except according to procedure established by law”.

  • The major drawback of legal aid movement in India is the lack of legal awareness.

Organ Donation and Transplantation Provides Second Life 

  • Organ donation and transplantation provides a second chance at life for thousands of people each year.
  • The growing disparity between the rich and poor, demand for human organs and availability of technology in the country makes the trading of organs a quick means to riches for some and a relief for others.
  • While 2.1 lakh Indians require kidney transplantation annually, but only 3000 – 4000 kidney transplants are done.
  • While annually around 4,000–5,000 patients in India require a heart transplant, so far only 100 heart transplants have been conducted across the country.
  • Finding a donor is the main issue in the country. Lack of awareness and improper infrastructure facilities are the main reasons behind the existing scenario
  • Government of India enacted the ‘Transplantation of Human Organs (Amendment) Act in 2011 which made provisions for simplifying the procedure for human organ donation.
  • The recently notified Transplantation of Human Organs and Tissues Rules (THOT),2014 has many provisions to remove the impediments to organ donation while curbing misuse/misinterpretation of the rules.
  • NOTTO-National Organ and Tissue Transplant Organization (NOTTO) is a National level organization.

NOTTO has following two divisions:

  • National Human Organ and Tissue Removal and Storage Network.
  • National Biomaterial Centre(National Tissue Bank)

Donor Card

  • Signing a donor card is the first step in making your wishes about donation known.
  • A donor card is not a legal document but an expression of one’s willingness to donate.
  • Vital organs such as heart, liver, lungs, kidneys, pancreas and intestines, and tissues such as corneas, heart valves, skin, bones, ligaments, tendons, veins, etc. can be donated in case of brain death. 

The World Health Organization (WHO) in its statement on the sale of organs clearly states that it violates the Universal Declaration of Human Rights as well as its own constitution: “The human body and its parts cannot be the subject of commercial transactions. Accordingly, giving or receiving payment for organs should be prohibited.”
