MY OPINION:-
Lying can be a crime, but only in some specific circumstances. If you are in court and you swear to tell the truth about something it is a crime to lie.
Just remember: Lies are most beneficial when they're not selfish. If you tell your partner he or she looks great before a date to boost his or her self-esteem, that's one thing.

In specefic situations yes it is punishable as a criminal offense to lie which is intentionally saying or printing information that the person knows to be wrong or false.
Lying is bad because it's a form of deception. You can of course deceive someone into thinking the opposite of what's true using entirely truthful statements, that doesn't make it any better.
Lying may be helpful when there is no ambiguity about the resulting benefits for those on the receiving end.
But in most other circumstances, honesty is the best policy.
