Capital punishment
Well the topic seems to be very interesting and has provoked a good response…
In my opinion….Ii believe everybody must be given an opportunity to make up his mistake….there is a possibility that the person committing that heinous crime might have suffered form some kind of mental stress then he should be sent to a rehabilitation centre……
I would also like to draw your kind attention to the infamous case between Preeti Jain and Madhur Bhandarkar, in which the former accused the latter to sexually harass which was proved to be faulty. The famous director of Page3 was acquitted. In case of capital punishment he would have been no more with us. I think if the capital punishment is not abolished girls like Preeti Jain would try to misuse it….which is not fair.
Although I know that nobody crime can’t be stopped by giving capital punishment, but still there is need of capital punishment for any dangerous crime like child-abuse or child-rape.Otherwise in case of all other crimes, other punishments can be considered. But to correct a person neither jail nor capital punishment is a solution at all. Moreover if a person kills other, killing that person again won’t generate a solution. In fact in our country prisons are not that much modernized or there is not the scope by staying where prisoner may get corrected.
I think first we should modernize the jails. We should employ gold medalist
mind-counselors who will counsel on the prisoners and will help to overcome their problems.
Incase of poor, on-educated prisoners there should be arrangement like this that they will get the scope to work on “making various crafts” while staying in the jail and which will get sold by the jail-authorities in the outside and for which prisoners will earn good amount of money and they will discover new meaning of life.
Do you think that in India’s prisons anybody gets the proper environment to get corrected? If he doesn’t get corrected—then what’s the meaning of sending him jail? So i think govt. should make the jail more modernized.
I will also like to say a few words to Faisal….Saudi Arabia follows the simple principle “AN EYE FOR AN EYE, A TOOTH FOR A TOOTH” which is not fair. Take the case of Mukhataramai of Pakistan….She became a victim of one such law and she was gang raped in her own village only because her brother had a relation with a high class girl. Such type of system is not suitable as far as a democracy like India is concerned.
