  • The Jails and the Women Prisoners As They Exist……
    CHAPTER - 1 THE JAILS AND THE WOMEN PRISONERS AS THEY EXIST……. The state of Punjab is a prosperous region known for its industrious and hardworking people. But even as these tall well built people cope with numerous specific regional problems, accept changes and grow in a global world – the glaring fact that needs specific attention, is the growing incidence of crime and even more so - the growing incidence of crime committed by women. The changing nature and patterns of these crimes require serious consideration. Most jails had little or no provisions for women to start with - later some arrangements were made to accommodate them. With the increase in women prisoners in each jail the area of confinement is deficient in many ways. Taking up the region of Punjab, which is the focus of the present study, we find that all the prisons located in the various parts of Punjab do not have provisions to keep women prisoners. Only the District and Central jails, which are eight in number, have some provisions to keep women prisoners. There is one exclusive jail for women at Ludhiana, which houses only women prisoners. Once convicted, the women from all the other eight jails are supposed to be sent to this jail. However, a large number of under- trails are also lodged here. Women are under detention in the dowry act cases, drug trafficking- NDPS act, excise act, theft, murders due to family disputes and illicit relationships. A majority of the women prisoners belong to the lower socio-economic strata, a few to the lower middle class and a very few belong to the middle middle class strata of society.
