Some countries are struggling with an increase in the rate of crime. Many people think that having more police on the streets is the only way to reduce crime. To what extent do you agree?

Crime is like a cancer in

modern era. Many countries of

world are facing the issue of tremendous increase in crime rate. Because of which, people believe that there should be more

police

officers patrolling the streets. I partly agree with

this

view.

Firstly

Linking Words

, patrolling can prevent illegal activities as

this

Linking Words

might help create a sense of fear in the minds of criminals. The lack of surveillance leads to more unlawful activities. If the

police

officers are out on the streets of the violent areas,

then

there will be less illegal activities because they can get caught.

Secondly

Linking Words

, it gives citizens a sense of protectiveness.

For example

Linking Words

, if there is something unlawful happening,

then

Linking Words

it is easier for people to report it to the

police

officers and they can arrive the crime scene faster.

This

Linking Words

can help in saving the victim from the adversaries.

However

Linking Words

, I do believe that placing more force on the ground is not a solution to

this

Linking Words

problem. For the surveillance purposes, cameras can be installed on the streets, shopping areas etc. To solve

this

Linking Words

problem, the mentality of the people, law system etc., needs to be changed.

For instance

Linking Words

, there are many officials of law who are corrupt and have joined hands with the bad guys to earn some extra money. The administration needs to make sure that

such

Linking Words

officers get severe punishments for their betrayal to the community.

Moreover

Linking Words

, the government must try to make stricter laws and ensure that they get implemented at the ground level. All the criminals must get strict punishments. To conclude, I do agree that installing more

police

Use synonyms

officers on the ground can help prevent lawlessness, but

this

Linking Words

is not the effective way. To effectively reduce crime, the government needs to work on changing the mentality of people, make stricter laws, so that no offender gets out without any sentence.
