Aruna Shanbaug, face of euthanasia debate, dies

Aruna Shanbaug, the face of the euthanasia debate, died today - 42 years after being raped, strangled and left in a vegetative state. Ms Shanbaug's faithful colleagues and friends took her care till the very end. Her death brings an end to her agony, but does it also make a powerful case for legalising active euthanasia?

Bureaucrats, politicians at loggerheads

Three senior bureaucrats are caught in the crossfire between Delhi government and Lieutenant Governor Najeeb Jung. Another is issued a warning for being inappropriately dressed for the Prime Minister. Are bureaucrats increasingly coming under attacks from the political class for not toeing their line?
