A Prison would be a Reformed-Prison when inmates dont feel like Prisoners anymore: Prison Guard Dressing should be changed to Traditional Indian wear. Prison should be painted/designed to give a feeling of home stay to the Prisoners. Prisoners should be trained in our real History. Our cultural values should be imparted. Prison should be renamed to Human Reforms center. Small time prisoners should be fixed with unremovable GPS device on the leg & assigned to government jobs.

Before prison reforms please do police reforms. Prison reforms will be meaningless unless police feel committed to reforms. Police must have self-respect for their job and duties. Public would respect them also. Police is a critical part of our social life.

Prison Reforms should be preceded by Judicial Reforms. Accumalation of Cases in the Courts for decades is "JUSTICE DENIED". and this is exploited by many in indulging in Civil, Financial and Political Crimes. Expediting the Judicial exercise is VERY URGENT. Time limit for cases to be closed. Delay tactics should be dealt with a Heavy Hand. Fear of Law and Justice should be INSTALLED. Prison reforms would automatically fall in place for there is a surety that genuine criminals are behind bars.

The combining of the FIR system (CCTNS) with the JUdicial System (Case Registers) and Prison System (xxx… don't know if one exist).. can actually tell at any time who is what prison and for what offense.. How much time has been served etc. We also need to adopt some good systems from western system.. which is classifying prisons, segregating under trials from regular criminals etc.

How Buddha made the Notorious 'Angulimala' into a gentle monk, please make prisoners understand the futility of 'deceit, violence and Killing for living ' mindset and how the peace and helpful, diligent, kind, hard work and Buddhist treasures of spirituality will bring in harmony, happiness and transforms society into better place to live.

Prisoners are human beings too. We as a fast changing civilized society should give the prisoners opportunity to adopt a normal life, take care of their family, socialize and most important livelihood generation to live a respected life. Juveniles should be given an environment of love and free environment so that they should became good human being and refrain from criminal activities. Open Prisons should be increased in country. Even today we do not have open air prisons in many States.

Prisoners should be allowed to get skill training like I.T.I course, Computer course, different languages learning etc according to their choice during their stay in Prison. They may be engaged in social works so that they could come out as a good man for society.
