    In the **Selvi v. State of Karnataka** case (2010), the Supreme Court of India recognized the **right to mental privacy** as a part of the **right to personal liberty** under **Article 21** of the Indian Constitution. The Court held that the involuntary administration of scientific techniques such as narcoanalysis, polygraph tests, and Brain Electrical Activation Profile (BEAP) tests violates this right, along with the **right against self-incrimination** under **Article 20(3)**.[](https://testbook.com/landmark-judgements/selvi-vs-state-of-karnataka)
