If immediate Justice is delivered, our lives would become much easy and we will fear doing wrong or cheating others.

I guess it depends. Am I getting punished immediately for an unkind thought? Or are we only having God punish people for murder or assault? Because I’d be all for the latter. At least, I think. Because God knows everything there is no way He’d punish the wrong person.

Evil thoughts are not only thoughts. They are our karma. Before doing anything, we think of it. We think and decide to do it. That's why thoughts are also karma and are punished or rewarded according to their nature.
I hope you got it.
Thoughts are seeds. They generate acts, acts turn into our nature, nature turns into our habit and habit becomes our fate.

Immediate punishment, and immediate rewards, to my mind, would not work effectively.
We are given extra time, before rewards, and punishment, hit home, for a reason.
We are given extra time to think carefully over our actions, and so given a chance to try to correct situations, and to make amends, for our actions, and to think about how we can best use any rewards that might come to us too.
We can learn more effectively, when we are given time to think over our actions, which immediate punishment/reward, would not give to us.
As, we would be acting more blindly, not awarely then, only trying to avoid immediate punishment, and to get immediate rewards, rather than our seeing the long term results of our actions.

Thank you It's a hypothetical situation It can happen if God wants to do that.Hiwever I know it's not going to happen.
Someone does a crime, say, kills someone else. The court first decides if he is the culprit and he has done it intentionally. Suppose the judge decides he should be hanged. Then the man is sent to jail. He is not executed immediately. A date is fixed for execution. Before that date he has time to repent or appeal to judge to reconsider his judgement.
I imagined a world where every wrongdoing is punished immediately and every good work is rewarded immediately.
God is the Supreme judge. He knows everything.
It's just my imagination.

@innertalks You are right. But sometimes we are cheated or looted and don't get justice immediately. For example, a piece of land which my father had purchased with his hard earned money was registered by a rich man in his own name.He bribed concerned officials and got it done. Now the case is in the high court. I don't know when the final verdict would come. It might take months and even years. The land is costly. I want to reclaim it as soon as possible.
I imagined of such a world where justice is done immediately.
It's just my imagination. I know it can never turn into s reality.
