Some people think that the best way to reduce crime is to give longer prison sentences. Others, however, believe there are better alternative ways of reducing crime. Discuss both views and give your opinion.

There is no doubt in today's epoch, felony has reached to its apex. While few people consider that, sentencing prolonged imprisonment is a most effective approach to deplete misdemeanour rate, I would agree with those who believe that other solutions

such

as educating and providing employment to everyone may be equally impressive.

Firstly

, the government must take strict action on criminals to achieve the safety of society.

This

is because it will disseminate a strong message to potential lawbreakers that if they indulge in any infringement they would have to suffer harsh consequences.

For instance

, in the Arab country, heinous crimes are awarded life imprisonment and

this

worked as a deterrent to criminals. The argument goes that if criminal spend a long time behind the bar,

then

this

will surely the best possible solution to decrease the crime rate.

However

, I believe there are other viable options to reduce transgression from society

such

as providing proper education and adequate job opportunities. The reason for

this

is that erudition and employment will create responsible citizens and they would not consider opting for criminal activities in any worst scenarios.

As a result

,

this

preventive action from authorities will not only help to drop wrongdoing graph, but

also

it will forge a society with better civilians. In Conclusion,

although

it is paramount important to the governments to penalise culprit with a long-duration prison sentence, I feel that taking proactive steps to provide basic amenities

such

as education and jobs for people would decrease transgression rate significantly and

this

is a better alternative than former action.
