1.      MURDER

Culpable homicide is murder:
        If the act by which the death is caused is done with the intention of causing-
         a.     Death
         b.     Such bodily injury-
As the offender knows to be likely to cause the death of the person to whom the harm is caused
            Or
Is sufficient, in the ordinary course of nature, to cause death,
            Or

If the offender knows that the act by which the death is caused is so imminently dangerous that it must, in all probability, cause death.
Culpable homicide is not murder in the following cases
[Exceptions to Sec. 300]

Exception 1: Culpable homicide is not murder, if the offender, causes the death of the person who gave grave and sudden provocation to the offender.
Example: B gives grave and sudden provocation to A, A, on this provocation, fires a pistol at B, neither intending nor knowing himself to be likely to kill Z, a passerby. A kills Z. Here, A has not committed murder, but merely culpable homicide not amounting to murder.

Exception 2: Culpable homicide is not murder, if the offender, in the exercise in good faith of right of private defence, exceeds the legal limit and causes the death of the person without a pre-meditation and without any intention of doing more harm than necessary.
Example: A, suspecting house-breaking, saw B, the total stranger, coming out of A’s house at night through a hole apparently made by B. A immediately attacked B and killed him. The Court held that A was guilty of culpable homicide not amounting to murder.

Exception 3: Culpable homicide is not murder, if the offender, a public servant, exceeds his legal powers and causes death, by an act, which he believed was in good faith, lawful and necessary to discharge his duty and without ill-will towards the person killed.

Exception 4: Culpable homicide is not murder if the victim consents to his/her death being caused.
Example: A patient in the last stage of cancer, suffering from excruciating pain requests her husband to remove the life support. (This is passive euthanasia)
Euthanasia is the practice of intentionally ending a life in order to relieve pain and suffering.
Passive euthanasia entails the withholding of common treatments, such as antibiotics, necessary for the continuance of life
Active euthanasia entails the use of lethal substances or forces, such as administering a lethal injection, to kill and is the most controversial means.
ONLY PASSIVE EUTHANASIA IS LEGAL IN INDIA
