The move aims to guarantee equality to prisoners

- ASHWANI SHARMA

SHIMLA: In what is seen as a significant step to end caste-based discrimination, the Himachal Pradesh government has tweaked the state Prison Manual 2021 to stop the segregation of prisoners on the basis of their castes in jails.

Confirming the move, a senior official said the state government has changed all of the caste-based clauses in the HP Prison Manual 2021 in order to guarantee equality to the prisoners lodged in the state's jails.

"The old system of caste-based work distribution among inmates has been finally done away with," said the official, terming it as part of 'Vyavastha Parivartan'.
