Answer and explanation

Correct answer A

Parmanand Katara emphasised the duty of doctors to provide immediate medical aid to preserve life without waiting for police or procedural formalities, so it is primarily associated with the "Right to emergency medical care". Article 21 supplies the constitutional foundation, but "Right to life and personal liberty" is the broader general right rather than the specific one the case is known for.
