Hi, according to me capital punishment should be banned because people who commit inhuman crimes like rapes and acid attacks should not directly be hanged but should be first tortured to such an extent that they realize what would that girl had feet when she had undergone such a treatment.
After this inhuman behaviour they should be left in a place where no one can meet them place where they can't even get the sunlight and rarely a square meal per day. As we all know that a executioner who gives one death without much fear is not as inhuman as one makes one die every minute and second.
In the Andaman and Nicobar Islands the prisoners are subjected to solitary confinement inside the cellular jails built specially built for that purpose and have no attachment to the outer world. Therefore to conclude I would like to say that capital punishment should be banned and criminals should realize their mistakes before taking their ultimate rest.

Hi dears, I want to share a point about CP.
In my point of view CP shouldn't be banned specially in rape case. At first our government should make a sticks low for rapist, if it clears that he is rapist. On that time our law and order punished him.

This is a hotly debated topic.
In my view capital punishment should be abolished. Life is given by god. He alone has the right to take it rather capital punishment is inhuman and shows cruelty. And it is a fact too that inhumanity cannot be encountered with inhumanity.
Every sinner has a future and every saint has a past. CP should be replaced by life imprisonment. If the conditions are worse then they should be tortured that the guilty himself pleads for death sentence.

Hi, I am Abhishek Kamble.
I think, CP should be banned because when any criminal is hanged, he only dies, but the thoughts of the criminals do not dies.

Capital punishment is not the solution in terms of crimes like robbery and small crimes but in terms of rape and murder there should be a death penalty and the criminal should be hanged.
Like in the case of Saudi Arabia the rapist is punished on the road for hie crime. A rapist thinks thousand times before committing a rape.

What I think we should first separate the crime person has done what comes under rarest rare and what is not according to me death punishment shouldn't be there for terrorist as the other group of terrorist feels that their colleague has went to heaven and he done good job for their militant group.
Instead government should keep the terrorist in condition where terrorist will ask for death sentence every day govt should torture them and why easy death to terrorist who has killed lots of people. And on the other side there should be death punishment for rape and heinous crimes like honor killing and paid killers.

I read all Views of different guys.
So as per my opinion, in terms of death if criminal accept their mistake and do not have repent for that crime then CP must be there. Our rules are not strict as other countries have so crime and criminal increasing day by day.
Crime is done by mistakenly and person/relatives who suffer from that crime and they allow apology to that criminal then CP should not there only this terms. So rules like Eyes on Eyes.

Capital punishment should be banned I would like to ask all the people supporting CP that does it make us any better by killing those who kill?
Almost all religious texts say that killing any criminal makes us a bigger criminal. Also CP is taken as an opportunity to take revenge. It does not deter the crime. Mentally sick are also killed innocent ones lose their life.

It seems to be an interesting topic. Well what does this word "Capital Punishment" mean?
Does it mean the final punishment given to a person for the most severe crimes? Well, then is it in our hands. There is above the almighty to read out the final verdict.
Usually the people who have done severe crimes such as rapes, murders, or any other big offence are dealt with capital punishment. I agree that they have done unforgivable offence & should be charged with punishments. But, is death the ultimate solution? No, I don't think so can't they be given a second chance. Some people say that these people should be hanged as it causes less pain. But then, it would be an easy way out for them. What is the use of capital punishment if it does not affect other people. Instead criminals should get a chance to correct themselves. We should help them to correct themselves because by killing these criminals no profit will be gained by the victim's family. Neither would it help to bring back the person to earth again.
By correcting their problems and changing their ideology we have to bring out a change in our society crime is an ideology. It could not be erased as long as we bring about a change in our society. So, it cannot be changed by imposing physical punishments. So, this change should be first brought about at individual level. First of all we should eliminate social evils which degrade our society such as corruption, non-unity among different races, wrong notions, and perhaps the wrong way of carrying out life. In most cases, people due to absence of moral or due to poverty, or because of some ill influence enter into the world of crimes.
Some of them realize about it, but, sometimes it becomes too late for them. By applying capital punishment we are not allowing them correct their mistakes and also not to spread the lesson they have learnt, so that, it would lead to an awakening among people.
