Prison reforms and legal support at a correctional facility: a case analysis

Abstract

We present a case study which is an effort to explore the impact of implementation of developmental measures many of which are already suggested in various literature on prison and correctional facilities. Some of the prior studies have also shown that in some cases, such measures are not put to effective use due to lack of administrative leadership. The means when implemented with proper administration make significant difference. Thus, present study also effectively explores the impact on prisoners of some innovative developmental measures. Specifically, the case study is on a particular Jail which is located in a district of Uttar Pradesh.
