I am just wondering why not our govt tie up with private sector to enable Navodaya schools achieve highest standards in imparting education to talented children of towns/villages. Many of the Navodaya schools started during 1990s are have declined in terms of infrastructure and standard of education. If India's software giants like TCS, Infy and Wipro could adopt these Navodaya schools there is nothing better than that.

PRACTISE OF YOGA LIKE ASHTANGA YOGA OF PATANJALI OR VIPASSANA OR ANY SUCH MEDITATION SCIENCE COMING FROM SANATAN VAIDIC CULTURE CAN TRANSFORM PRISONERS. BUT BEFORE THAT POLICE PERSONNEL NEEDS TO BE TRAINED IN THAT.

life.after sudarsana kriya yoga was introduced in trivandrum central jail,the general reaction of the prisoners was ..had we got this knowledge before we wouldnt have reached here..(as reported in newspapers) .That means any attempt to reform them really works. As per the second category there should be an advocates forum to visit the jails to take up the case of innocent victims.Gross human rights violation is another problem. This can be solved by periodic visits of human rights commission

Sir Two types of people end up in prison .first group are criminals and second innocent people.regarding the first,every crime is a product of dehumanised mind.This means the mind of the person was dehumanised through hostile circumstances.Behaviour modification therapy can be adopted to rectify mal adaptive behaviour and they can be trained to view life in a positive way and adapt well with the society.yoga and meditation can be introduced to reduce stress.let me cite an example from real cont

Most of women are victim of circumstances so they should be treated with sympathy. They should be trained with women centric skills like knitting and tailoring etc.Similar to previous suggestion, the market is available thru online market. They should be provided with Sanitary Pads as an essential need. Skill development manual should be available thru video and online mode. Anonymus complaint system would make authorities more responsible, ultimately improving conditions. God Bless My Country

Each area has some geographic specialty.like crafts, carpentery, pottery etc. identified with their location like Sankheda of Gujarat is with wooden works, Saurashtra of Gujarat with Bandhani, Rajasthan with cloth printing. Prisoners should be trainned with that art. Later their product should be available online, it would be sold eassily as they are associated with Geographical Identity. This would provide employment to inmate, survival of local craft and money to jail. God Bless My Country.

Though its state subject the states should be asked to release the prisoners who are eligible for bail, as they have spent half of their maximum term in jail. A special one month or so course should be designed for those who are set to released. So they can SET themselves in the society. New technologies and avenues should be introduced to them with probable prospects. God Bless My Country.
