Some countries are struggling with increases in crime rates. Some believed that having more police on the streets is the best way to reduce and combat crime. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Nowadays
crime
is increasing with each passing day. Some people believe that one
way
of eradicating
crime
is if we have more police on-road and streets. I partially agree with it as there are some other ways too to reduce the
crime
rate.
Therefore
, we will be discussing some ideas.
Firstly
, It is a good idea to have more
cops
on the streets if we want to decrease the
crime
rate which will somehow create fear in minds of criminals as
cops
work is to reduce and stop
crime
as well as maintain the safety and security of cities and ways.
For example
in
India
when a person has not followed the rules of driving while he is driving a vehicle so as soon as he sees a policeman standing for checking, he gets afraid and so tries to run away because he knows that if he catches him he will have to pay fine and can
also
be given punishment according to law. So, fear comes in the mind of culprits as they see
cops
so it is necessary to have
cops
on roads especially at night. Another
way
of declining crimes should be strict
laws
and implementation of those
laws
at once. If we will be having severe
laws
so the offender will get afraid of implementing those crimes. An example of it can be rapes cases in our country
India
as we can see that Delhi Capital of
India
is considered as rape capital.
Moreover
, In other states
also
too many cases are there. In
India
,daily we heard thousand of cases of rapes but do we know why is there is no control over
this
crime
. The answer is because our law on rape is so weak and steady that culprits do not fear as they know criminals who have raped a girl 12 years before are still alive and some are roaming free as they have a connection with politicians. They too will
also
be free after a few years of prison.
However
, countries like Saudi Arabia hangs the culprit within 2 days of his
crime
so the percentage of rape is least there. At ,
last
I just want to conclude my essay by saying that it keeping
cops
on roads and streets is a
way
of eradicating and stopping
crime
but one major
way
is to make some strict
laws
and implement them as soon as possible.
