D Correct answer
Explanation

Article 21 declares that no citizen can be denied his life and liberty, except by law. This means that a person's life and personal liberty can only be disputed if that person has committed a crime. However, the right to life does not include the right to die and hence, suicide or an attempt thereof is an offence.
