TM Krishna Critiques Death Penalty

TM Krishna Critiques Death Penalty

TM Krishna, a well-known Indian musician and social commentator, has written about the death penalty in India.

He argues that executing people is wrong and harms the country's moral values.

He points out that many countries have stopped using the death penalty, but India still does.

Krishna says that the death penalty is often given to poor and marginalized people, and the process is unfair.

He also mentions that the death penalty makes other punishments seem harsher and can make people numb to violence.

He believes that every execution makes the country a little less moral and that society should think carefully about using the death penalty.
