Apart from Terrorists, hired killers also should be given capital punishment. They kill unknown people just for money without any previous enmity. If these hired criminals are not given capital punishment the society will soon become barbarian.

These criminals come out on bail just in 15 days and commit more and more murders for money. They don't respect the law much. Because they have money power to influence to any level.

I want to say that, fear is a things which make everyone follow the rule and regulation of any country. If one has done a crime and is subjected to capital punishment, then he has too pay for what he has done.

Excusing any person will in some way boost the crime. In modern era when people are more materialistic and are not interested in spiritual studies, are losing all sense of what to do and what not to do. Thy don't have any clear goal of life. That's they do what they think is good for them.

So Government should help bonafide spiritual leaders to educate people in mass about spirituality and to act in harmonizing way in nature.

Only giving capital punishment and not taking any realistic approach to stop crimes will lead to nowhere and only increase in crime, riots etc. So please guide and take care of each and every section of this country so that they lead meaningful and happy life.

Capital punishment should be there or not. It should be decided by voting by public through by FREE SMS so that all public should vote. Any political party if gives assurance that they will implement punishment of hanging for all personnel involved in murder/rape or gang rape without consent/kidnapping for sexual assault/for brothel/extortion/bank robbery/anti national cases directly or indirectly will come to power with majority without any alliance.

A Court deciding capital punishment should be reviewed by a bench of 3 judges (whose names should not disclosed to media) of higher Court on getting appeal within 3 months of judgement given by lower Court.

But a person killing a person who killed his own family members should not be given capital punishment though he should not take law in his hands. Learned judges should take in to consideration all pros & cons of the cases before giving his final verdict.

No mercy petitions to president should be allowed or if allowed it should be decided within a week. Then only the strength of criminals will be reduced and actual capacity of Tihar will be maintained. People supporting no capital punishments should think nowadays jails becomes university of technology for criminals to learn new techniques.

Even a single criminal will not change if goes to jail for major crimes. Rape could be averted if old system of child marriage is comes again with fixing minimum age by the Doctors and also by banning of Horoscope matching system so that people get marry in time. This is my personal opinion, may be a public opinion.

Because being a democratic country like India, everyone have the right to live, therefore Capital Punishment is not fully applicable. But, if Capital Punishment is often applicable also, the criminal will kill the victim. For Eg. A rapist will kill a girl because he know if he let the girl live he will be sentence to death.

Abolition and promotion of Capital punishment is already a controversial in the first ground. How about leaving the decision to the victim or victim's family whether to let the person live or not, or harm the reproductive organ, if in the rape case?

This whole death penalty thing makes no sense. It's like the government will kill the prisoner for killing a person.

How does this make the government any different from the killer. You are killing a person for killing a person. Then aren't you committing the same crime?what lesson are you giving to the prisoner that you'll die and even if he regrets it, what can he do? It's too late to change anything.

You should allow him to live under the supervision of people so if he does a crime again he would be imprisoned for life. Why don't we start by using words instead of guns. "death penalty is a murder".

According to me capital punishment should not be abolished. If there is capital punishment, criminals will have fear factor in their minds. The terrorists and rapist should not be allowed to roam freely in the society. Rapists should be hanged in front of the public so that everyone will come to know that girls are not sex toys.

In my opinion death penalty should be there in India so that one would think a thousand time before doing so or becoming a criminal.

Capital punishment should not be banned in India but it should be more specified and more descriptive so that any innocent person not get punished by this as per my opinion CP should be more worst than hanging people because it is easiest way of dead and terrorist who kills thousands of people and by taking only one life of him or her is not Justice to all those who are killed by them.

Friend have you ever read a newspaper article from a girl's point of view today India is crime capital jail's are full of criminals India in my point of view requires capital punishment. There are pro's and con's.

There should have a fear of death in one's mind which could resist them from committing crime. This should be continued till crime rates are in controls, till the last justices is delivered to the family's of victim.

People say capital punishment should not given then fine the offender should tortured based on the crime and should be made to suffer, but of purse it is kinder to kill him so why are people against justice, are they against punishment of the offender because that is ridiculous.
