The 'Right to Live with Dignity' under Article 21 of the Indian Constitution is a cornerstone beyond the fundamental rights to life and liberty. It includes the right to a meaningful and dignified existence, highlighting the crucial role of the state in creating the necessary conditions for people to live a life of respect, health, and well-being. This study delves into developing and interpreting this entitlement through legal decisions. It examines how the Indian Supreme Court has broadened its purview to include well-being, privacy, housing, and environment. The research argues that despite significant progress in interpreting Article 21, there are still gaps in its application due to socioeconomic disparities and ignorance. The paper provides ideas for how to make the right to live with dignity more rigorously enforced, emphasising the state's responsibility in this process. It also advocates for a comprehensive strategy that considers societal and legal factors to guarantee that every person can live with the dignity that the Constitution's framers intended.
