MH SET 2021 Paper 2 Sociology Question Paper (26-Sep-2021)
The correct answer is

Principle of fraternity

Beauchamp and Childress, in Principles of Biomedical Ethics, set out four core principles of biomedical ethics: respect for autonomy, non-maleficence, beneficence and justice.

Principle of justice: fair distribution of benefits, risks and costs of healthcare. It is a principle.

Principle of beneficience: the duty to act for the good of the patient. It is a principle.

Principle of malficience: as printed, this stands for the principle of non-maleficence, the duty not to inflict harm (‘first, do no harm’). It is a principle.

Principle of fraternity: fraternity is a social and political ideal (as in liberty, equality, fraternity), not one of the principles of biomedical ethics. It is not a principle.

Hence, the answer is Principle of fraternity.
