How would you formulate an argument against capital punishment from a constitutional perspective?
An argument against capital punishment can be based on the constitutional right to life under Article 21. It can be contended that capital punishment constitutes an 'unfair, cruel, and unusual' punishment, and thus violates the 'right to live with human dignity'. It can also be argued that it violates the right to equality under Article 14, as it is often arbitrarily and disproportionately applied.
