Question. Some people think certain prisoners should be made to do unpaid community work instead of being put behind bars. To what extent do you agree?

Growing number
Suggestion
A growing number
of people believe that prisoners should be allotted community work without being paid for the same rather than imprisoning them. I totally disagree with
this
fact as
this
situation allows the culprit to move freely in the society.
In addition
to
this
, it
also encourage
Suggestion
also encourages
others to commit
crime
without fearing the law.
Firstly
, offenders ought to stay behind the bars for serving the punishment. Law and order are equal for all the criminals.
Hence
, without being biased about the circumstances, due to which the
crime
occurred or considering the severity of the misdeed, prisoners should bear the ramification of their misdemeanour.
For instance
, a thief, if asked to perform the job of a
peon

without being

paid, then
then
his propensity would be to mug other people in the surrounding area.
This
way, he might
reoffend
cause to feel resentment or indignation
offend
or become a threat to the society because of the financial issue or the habit of stealing.
Secondly
, imprisonment
also
serves the purpose of setting an example to the community. Lenient rules and regulations often lead to upsurge in the
crime
rate. To illustrate, if a person commits a heinous
crime
of vandalism and moves
free

places, then
then
this
may encourage other people to follow the same strategy as they are well aware that they would not be given any serious punishment. To conclude, lawbreaker should be confined to prison for

a specific amount
of
time according

time, according
to the severity of the
crime
committed by them.
This
will give a sense of safety to the victim as well to other people.
Also
, it will be a paradigm to remember by the society, which will ultimately aid to lessen the overall
crime
ratio.
