Lack of education and employing opportunities are the main causes of the rising crime rate. Some people,
therefore
, feel that by simply educating prisoners, we can discourage them from committing crimes again after they get released from prison. I totally agree with
this
 view.
Such
, almost nobody is born as a criminal. Most criminals are victims of circumstances. In fact, most of them come from the poorest strata of the society and lack of information.
As a result
, they don’t have many job opportunities. Many of them eventually become thieves or gangsters.
By contrast
, criminal tendencies are comparatively low among educated people.
Although
, giving education to convicted criminals in confinement will not certainly forget their past.
However
, it improves their chances of finding work once they get released. One of the biggest problems that ex-prisoners face is the lack of rehabilitation opportunities. The society prefers to keep them at an arm’s length and as
such
 they have fewer opportunities for making a living once they complete their sentence. Unfortunately,
this
 increases their chances of getting into

the case
 again.
Besides
, talent may change the way of living for the good. If prisoners receive an opportunity to learn and acquire vocational or academic degrees from prison, they are more likely to find employment upon their release. When they have a secure job and a means of living, most of the people will become happily exited and don't want anymore to get back into violation again.

To conclude, attainment of one's individual improves a person’s mindset. Just because someone is a prisoner, it does not mean that they don't deserve to avail a learning and acquire degrees. In fact, educating prisoners is one of the best gifts we can give for their rehabilitation and successful pass into the society.
