There is need of Social development of the Prisoners by organizing festivals or some important events and their participation should be encouraged in such programs. Blood donation camps can also be organized. This will help in bringing them into the main stream.

Under trial Prisoners are escorted in Prisoner van of Police dept by deputing 2 Police officials with each prisoner. By doing so, a huge amount of govt exchequer is being spent along with wastage of time and man power. There is a acute shortage of manpower of police officials in many districts of our country. Once e-peshi Project is fully implemented (not fully implemented in our country), this problem will be automatically resolved. So, please do the needful.

Sir, prison reforms are long overdue. They are basically correctional / reformative centers. Unless on isolation / death row, most other inmates can be gainfully employed, learn a new skill - cooking, baking, tailoring, computer skills, furthering education, given counselling on health and stress / anger management so that they can integrate with society on release. Counsellors whom they can approach if they have problems on release & who will check on them should be appointed.

Prisons should be reformative centres where hortculture,acting,writing etc, are developed rather than places of corruption to supply drugs,mobiles or misinformations.

Firstly, Social Justice Courts shaal be formed for tge prisoners who might get jail for 1 year or less and shall be awarded with Social Service as their sentence for their crime. These Social Justice Courts shall take due care for rehabilitation of the prisoners booked under this section. Secondly, Personell Ability Identification Cell shall be formed at district level to separate prisoners that from the hard core criminals and those who have heinous crime allegations. Thank you.
