Once I had occasion to meet an inmate in this jail in connection with his case.
Then, I saw this Satvik compound in front of this famous jail.
It was clean. The prisoners maintained cleanliness and orderliness.
Statues of some swans and a fountain like statue was in front. Everything appeared to have been handmade hard work by prisoners atoning for their crimes.
The colours on walls were simple. Work of prisoners.
The photography was prohibited. So I looked at everything as much as I could.
The prisoners were treating this jail as their own home. They were keeping front gates and compound clean so that guests to their home do not get bad impression about their home.
The Jail appeared to have a soul of its own. It treated all its inmates with complete forgiveness.
