The country seem to have caught up in one more controversial issues, with people from President to victim being caught up in the ruffle. With Afzal being one of accused in taking part in dastardly act of bombing the very seat of indian democracy, which resulted in loss of nine of our soldiers trying to protect the parliament. Well this is just one of the situation where court has come up with death sentence to the accused. We had many more such victims before like Dhananjay accused for rape, then Dara singh for burning Graham staines to death.
The situation has taken up more of emotional appeal rather than logical view, for the fact that many familar social activist are taking stand in favour of Afzal to be granted clemency, for the various reason such as trial wasn't fair. On other hand people seems to be asking him to be given death punishment, this will ensure message is reached to criminal that we aren't a soft nation.
Now it took lot of my grey cell to really analyse the situation, before i could express my say. When someone accused is convicted of crime that takes a huge toll of human life. The activities that are well planned and executed by these hard hearted criminals. It's important that the state provide the harshest of punishment to these criminal, for they have no value for human life. Thus they should not be spared as they might involve themselves in many more dastardly act, taking more human lives. Look at it with different viewpoint, it cost the state to maintain them at the prisons. In my opinion i feel the criminal involved in crime such as Mass murders, Rape and Terrorism should never be spared. As they are living threat to entire mankind.
Is capital punishment the only solution to get rid of these hard hearted criminals.
Its important to confirm, wheter capital punishment is a solution to handle crime and criminals, is it a deterrent to commit an crime. Does an individual taking up crime thinks about his end, while commiting or indulging in such activities. Then how can presence of capital punishment in the law book deter him from commiting the crime. However cold hearted an individual is, that forces him to take up crime under some pressurizing situation. For one thing is for sure no one like to commit crime for he might take pleasure in commiting it. Its only environment one is bred that shapes his motives. So when an individual is accused of crime, by providing him an chance to regret his/her decision we can ensure he might come back to normal life stream. Thereby we can be sure we not only lose a life, but MAY BE get back a reformed individual. Well it seem i might be painting a bright picture hoping that all criminal accused to change, leading a normal life thereafter. But the fact is with enforcing capital punishment we highlight the fact even we have no value for human life too. Human life is precious, every effort to preserve them is a noble cause by itself.
I would like to end on the note that by providing clemency to the accused criminals doesnt suggest we are a soft nation, But by providing death penalty we showcase the fact even we are such stone hearted that we dont value a life.

Criminals are a living threat to society, its serve no purpose trying to grant them clemency. They should be punished with harshest punishment in order to ensure, such activities do not repeat again.
