The Jail department in the BJP-ruled Chhattisgarh has decided to add the Panchjanya (in Hindi) and the Organiser (in English), so-called mouthpieces of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) to the libraries for inmates.

The prison libraries in the state were stated to have collections of books and publications on diverse subjects.

During a recent inspection, state Director General (Jail) Himanshu Gupta found that libraries in jails do not have the weekly Panchjanya and Organiser.

He instructed officials to make the magazines available in all 33 state prisons.

Chhattisgarh has five central, 20 district jails and eight sub jails.
