**************************************************************************
Understand the latest Supreme Court verdict on hanging as a method of execution with this detailed UPSC Current Affairs analysis covering death penalty law, constitutional rights, and the debate over execution methods in India. This session explains the Supreme Courtโ€™s decision to retain hanging as the prescribed method of execution while examining the legal, constitutional, and humanitarian aspects of capital punishment.
In this video, we explain why the Supreme Court upheld hanging as constitutionally valid, the arguments challenging it, and how the debate connects with Article 21 (Right to Life and Personal Liberty), dignity of prisoners, and judicial review of execution methods. The session also covers the significance of the landmark Deena vs Union of India (1983) judgment, where the Supreme Court had earlier upheld hanging as a valid mode of execution.
Aspirants will also understand how this topic connects with important UPSC areas such as Indian Polity, Constitution, Judiciary, Fundamental Rights, Governance, Human Rights, and Current Affairs. This topic is highly relevant for UPSC Prelims, UPSC Mains GS Paper 2, State PCS, Judiciary Exams, and other competitive examinations.
This session will help learners understand the legal framework surrounding capital punishment in India, Supreme Court judgments, constitutional morality, and the ongoing debate over humane execution methods.
