Question

What is meant by prison system?

Answer 1

• In India, the average daily jail population is 1.5 lakh, with convicted offenders accounting for roughly 60%. 
• Jail criminals have to stick to strict prison restrictions.
• They are forced to live with strangers with limited freedom, emotional stability, and sexual relationships with their wives.
• They continue to provide the bare necessities of life, such as food and cleanliness, so that future generations will not want to commit crimes and spend time in jail.
• Maintaining a balance between strictness and liberalization is crucial in today’s Indian prison system. 
• A moderate policy should be maintained. Undertrials and prisoners should not be held in the same prison.
• Inmates should be able to choose their own work. The rules for being released on parole should be liberalized.
• Prisoners should have access to express their grievances and receive more frequent medical examinations and treatment.
• They should also be given the opportunity to express their natural abilities and potentials.
