Telangana Prisons Department has started many innovative ideas to reduce the crime in the society.
With an aim to curb crime in the state, more than 500 prisoners and ex-prisoners have been provided jobs by the Prisons Department. Due to this, the prisoners are not committing crime after having a job in the hands.
"We have conducted a job fair for the released prisoners and we invited multiple-national companies for providing employment. Eight to 10 companies came forward and participated in the fair." – said Narsimha, IG, State Prisons Department.
We also pay Rs 15,000 wages to each prisoner in urban areas and Rs 12,000 in rural areas. The initiative helped in reducing crime in the society, – he added.
