Prison reforms, there should be no prisons, but villages or small protected towns, where the normal life of a person continues, under a certain boundary and certain restrictions, putting a person in a jail is ruining his life as well as his families life. Certain hard core criminals should be in prisons, others with non serious crimes, should be put in those secure villages or towns and let their life continue like normal. Otherwise we are breeding criminals.

जेल में ऐसे कार्यक्रम किए जाने चाहिए ताकि लोग वहां से निकल कर अपने हुनर से रोरोजगार प्राप्त कर सकें। और जो लोग अपने काम में लगे रहेंगे वे ऐसा काम करने से बचेंगे जो उन्हें दुबारा जेल ले जाये।

Prisons shall be set up with more area to manufacture products that are inexpensive and doesn't require lot of training. This way, in the long run, prisons can be self-sufficient in funds and also helps the economy by prviding much needed daily goods cheaply. However, all the lots and batches of finished goods must be quality tested by a local private lab or in-house lab before distributing to the market. Chinese and Korean prisons have excelled in this process and can are good source to learn.

Environment of a prison should be such that criminals would try to improve themselves and take oath not to indulge in any crime. They should be encouraged to utilize time in creative activities in nation building.

Jail authorities should encourage the inmates to develop their hobbies. For example, if one inmate knows painting, then his art should be encouraged. This will not only help the other inmates to follow suit, but in near future this hobby can become handy for the Jail Authority.

There should be a feed back / Suggestion box which should be opened within a week or at the time of inspection by the higher authorities of the government. This will bring transparency and will further help to root out favoritism etc.
