Sanjeev Sharma

If one sees Haryana jail prisoners study literature books, it won't be a surprise. The Haryana Government has decided to buy literature books for the prisoners. This would help them change their attitude towards life. They will also get to know society they live in. For now, this will be available in 19 districts only and a notice will be issued in this regard. Haryana Minister for Information, Public Relations & languages Kavita Jain said, "This has been done for betterment of the prisoners. This will also increase their knowledge."
