Capital punishment is a legal but rarely carried out

sentence in INDIA.

The Supreme Court ruled in 1983 that the death penalty

should be imposed only in "the rarest of rare cases."Crimes which are punishable by death sentence are

murder,

gang robbery with murder,

abetting the suicide of a child

waging war against the nation, and

abetting mutiny by a member of the armed forces

DEATH PENALTY

revenge/justice, as a

deterrent to others, toprevent any danger of re-offending and it is cheaper

than life imprisonmentwhere criminal will stay

whole life in prison on taxpayers money.

killing someone is alwaysinhuman and it is like

murdering legally, there is noevidence of deterrent effect (indeed the available evidence

seems to show there is no

effect), life without parole isjust as effective a way toprevent someone re-offending

as finishing them, savingmoney can never be a

justification

I strongly feel, we have to reform our lawsespecially for death penalty. Our laws should be

such that a punishment should be so rigorous

that it should remind not only to the offenders/

terrorists/culprits but also it should be a living

example for the people around him about his

inhuman acts. Each day and night, he should

regret his acts of crime and at the same time itshould act as deterrent.
