Ielts Essay - CCTV

Increasing concern for public safety has forced authorities and law enforcement agencies to take a range of drastic steps, like installing CCTVs to ensure better security management of various locations open to public access, like shops, libraries, stations, shops and other public spaces. These measures have fetched both accolades and brickbats from various sections of society.

Close circuit television has come in a great respite; as installing these modern gadgets has helped in better monitoring of sensitive public domains prone to criminal incidents. Law enforcement agencies find it easy to apprehend perpetrators of illegal activities – on the basis of the clues made available by these hi-tech instruments; and also make preemptive efforts in curtailing such happenings – by creating a fear among anti-social elements of being caught red-handed during such acts – capable of jeopardizing public safety, for example, recent surveys suggest that several cases of theft and eve teasing have been either prevented or busted due to these machines.

Moreover, this modern introduction has instilled a sense of security among the common people, especially people dealing in valuable commodities, like gold; and those good that are prone to pilferage and theft. They are able to keep a close watch on the visitors to their shops and locations; and are able to react fast and call for police assistance.

However, CCTV concept has some serious flaws and common people find themselves cornered, for they feel being monitored all the time; and consider is as an encroachment of their fundamental rights. Several instances of misuse have also been cited, where causal female shoppers were covertly filmed inside the trying rooms.



To sum up, privacy of individual though important, but can never outweigh public safety, so CCTV is critical in today’s perspective. Squabbles apart, use of these gadgets is thus  imperative, so all objections should be ignored.

Ielts Essay - Gun control or No?
Humans have always had a direct or indirect relation with arms and ammunition for a long time. But, in the modern times, many experts have started suggesting that the civilized society do not need these anymore, while some others staunchly resent this and treat the privilege of keeping weapons at par with other fundamental rights.

Possession of arms and ammunition by common citizens can pose a serious threat to public safety, especially in urban areas – where people live on the edge of outbursts due to hectic schedules. People keeping weapons are susceptible to unruly behavior, and quite often they rather tend to point guns at each other even in instances of irrelevant arguments, for example, in case of road rage in urban areas, people resort to threatening each other in which events often takes nasty turn due to use of weapons resulting in serious injuries and sometimes even death.

Moreover, the law enforcement agencies find it really hard to keep a track of these combat gadgets. Their task of managing public safety becomes even more difficult in times of certain public events, like demonstrations, elections, public rallies or events of   public importance; as there is always a risk of anti-social elements creating unrest with help of these instruments.

However, some lobbyists cite several instances, where possession of weapons has helped the residents of an area to bolster their security and ensure their safety. As per this view, law enforcement agencies cannot be present everywhere all the time; and many a times people using these instruments in self-defense have been able to keep criminals and other anti-social elements at bay.

In conclusion, I personally feel that allowing a common citizen possession of weapons is a controversial issue and should be more seriously dealt with, and discreetly allow keeping these devices.
