Haryana has issued guidelines for terminally-ill patients to exercise their 'right to die with dignity'. The guidelines outline the process for making the choice to give up on life. Patients can exercise this right in case of severe medical conditions with no hope of recovery. The guidelines require an informed consent in writing, clearly stating when medical treatment may be withdrawn. The document should also indicate the circumstances in which medical treatment can be refused or withdrawn.
