Capital Punishment valid for terrorists is YES or NOT..???
There
are many kinds of crime and sins that a human being commits on every day basis,
calling it the ‘human nature’. Every holy book talks of Karma as to what you
sow you reap but not encouraging killing of human beings, in particular. Unlike
the holy books, one of the measures of the government is to punish the sinners
(terrorists) by imposing Capital Punishments. Indian law follows the
traditional way of hanging by the neck until death.

However, if Capital Punishment has
to be imposed on any criminal, on what background has he committed the crime
and how badly has it affected the society should be taken into consideration
and then and only then, the punishment should be given. Like when a student
commits a school felony he should be educated rightly by elders.
It is the basic math that the
punishment should equal to the rate of crime. Some crimes are so horrifying
that people consider revenge is the only option to satisfy their sorrow through
seeing the terrorist receiving capital punishment. This reasoning is not based on logic but on
emotions, like an eye for an eye ideology. But here people fail to realise that
an eye for an eye makes the whole world blind.
