Capital Punishment should be Banned or Allowed?

Capital punishment must be given on the basis of the crime of the person not on the basis of the age of thee person i.e. it must be like what we do we do for other we get it back in the same way.

Capital punishment should be avoided. Everyone in this world deserves a second chance. Instead of killing them we should give them a chance to correct themselves. Moreover CP is not a solution to any problem.

By killing a person he/she loses life and other people doesn't stop from doing that crime then what is the use of capital punishment?

Hi every one,

Capital punishment or death penalty is imposed by state as punishment for the criminals. If the criminals are allowed in the society again, the security of citizens will be at stake.

Saudi Arabia has a very low rate of crimes because it imposes death penalty and severe punishments. Values and morals must be protected by imposing maximum punishment for the criminals.

So capital punishment is needed in our country.

I think capital punishment is essential in India, in this modern day there are more crime and criminal, I agree there hundreds of nation which has removed death penalty. But there condition is not too similar with India, and country like United states, China, Pakistan do have capital punishment. So why should we abolish death penalty?

Hey guys Ankit here.

A/C to me I think that a rapist shouldn't be hanged because in our constitution every man have the right to live his life. If one should be hanged in the rape case we must have to find that what's the condition in doing that he may be illiterate or he was provoked by others to do that and every one get the chance to improve himself.

The state of our country will never improve if no strict action is taken against the criminals. Merely jailing the criminals is not enough they need to be hanged or tortured or they will never understand how their victims felt especially women.

Hi everyone my name is Abheek.

My opinion is that capital-punishment should not be banned because in today's date criminal cases are increasing day by day though the presence of capital punishment. If it is banned then the criminals in our country will roam freely thinking that whatever they will do, they will be not punished and the criminal cases will also get increased at a high rate.

So it's better that the capital punishment is not banned because still there are many people in our country who get feared of this punishment and think twice before doing it.

I think capital punishment should not be banned because it is deterrent which prevents a person to do the crime. And due to the fear of death they won't do this crime again as the jails are overcrowded the capital punishment should be given. Let 100 guilty go Scott-free, let not an innocent be hanged. As we have a human rights the victims also have the climatology. So timely justice is required. It is given at the rarest of the rare cases.

Capital punishment should not be banned as the prison may think that even though he is caught and is given lifetime imprisonment he can fill his stomach sitting in the jail. But can any type of imprisonment repair the irreparable loss of loosing a life of a person? At least capital punishment creates a fear among the criminals that they may have pay their own life for taking someone else life.

Everyone agrees that crime is bad and we need to stop it. This seems sensible and logical in every way, until we ask the question: Do we need the death penalty to be 'tough' on crime?

According to me Capital Punishment SHOULD be done away with because if there are death penalties, one would think for a thousand times before doing a crime. This will also help in creating a fear factor in the minds of the criminals. The terrorists and rapists should not be allowed to roam freely in the society. People like them should be publicly hanged so that everyone will come to know that violating someone else's rights cannot be tolerated in a DEMOCRATIC COUNTRY like India. I think that capital punishment should be allowed because it creates a lesson in front of the public or criminals that law is made for the public and if we abolish the law by committing the crime it would create a penalty for that person.

On the other hand it also depends upon the crime committed by the criminal. If the crime is heinous in nature like sexual harassment, honor killing you can't spare them by just giving them imprisonment, because it will just encourage others to commit the crime as they will not have the fear of death in their minds. While punishing we should think about the innocent public in general instead of the criminal who did the scandalous crime. Abolishing death penalties will be injustice to the victims who suffered from the heinous acts of the criminals. Death penalty acts as a fear factor to many people who could have turned into a criminal and it is very important in a country like India.

Thank you, and that's all I would like to say.
