Better food for sub-jail prisoners

By Our Special Correspondent

CHENNAI APRIL 7. The Government has ordered improvement in the quantity and quality of food supplied to prisoners in sub-jails, the Minister for Prohibition and Excise, O. Paneerselvam, informed the Assembly today.

Till now, there was disparity in the diet provided to them, compared to those in central prisons, special sub-jails and special prison for women.

To ensure transparency in the administration and enable the public to know the activities of the Prisons department, a web site (www.tn.nic.in/prisons, www.tn.gov.in/prisons) had been launched.
