Answer:
The State of Maharashtra's Prison department has rolled out a smart video- calling facility for female prisoners and inmates lodged at open jails.
After gaining achievement in its pilot project at Pune's Yerawada Principal Prison (YCP), a prisoner can talk to his/her family individuals for five minutes and could be charged rupees five. The department has acquired the smartphones for video calling thru the Prisoners Welfare Fund. however, the face to face talking facility with the own family participants will best be to be had on the cell smartphone numbers registered with the branch. For protection reasons, the conversations may also be tracked by a police constable to ensure that the talks centre around family issues. There are round 28,000 prisoners, which incorporates both convicts and under-trials, lodged throughout 54 jails, along with 13 open prisons and a couple of ladies prisons in the country.
