Explanation:

Statement I Many countries have done away with the capital punishment because it has been experienced that it is not helping the cause at all.

Here, capital refers to death penalty and this is correct in this context.

Statement II Though he did not have enough capital during the initial days of his business he still continued with the same vigor and that is why he is now so successful.

Here, capital means the initial money required to start a business. This is also correct.

Statement III The capital was decorated pompously during the occasion of the Independence day but the poverty stricken country failed to emulate the same in other places.

Here, capital refers to the main administrative area of the country from where all the policy decisions are taken and also the government of the country sits there. This is again correct.

So, Option E is the correct choice.
