आज की खबर देश की सबसे पुरानी जेल से। यह है- आगरा की जिला जेल। इस जेल में 20 मार्च से ही 3 महिला बंदी और 17 पुरुष बंदी हर रोज बाहर की दुनिया के लिए सेनिटाइजर और मास्क बना रहे हैं। यहां अब तक 80,000 मास्क बनाए जा चुके हैं। इन्हें राज्य के न्यायिक अधिकारियों के अलावा, पत्रकारों, मानसिक चिकित्सालय, पुलिसकर्मियों और निजी संस्थाओं को मुहैया करवाया जा रहा है। बिक्री के लिए इनकी कीमत महज 8 रूपए रखी गई है। इस राशि से ही जेल में बनने वाले सेनिटाइजर और मास्क का खर्च पूरा किया जा रहा है।

जेल के अधीक्षक श्री शशिकांत मिश्र का कहना है कि पूरी जेल को सेनिटाइज कर दिया गया है। सभी बैरकों को रोज फिनाइल से साफ किया जा रहा है और जेल के बाहर भी सेनिटाइजर लगा दिया गया है। जेल में सोशल डिस्टेंसिंग का भी पालन हो रहा है। इसके अलावा जेल रेडियो के जरिए भी बंदियों को जागरुक किया जा रहा है। इस रेडियो स्टेशन का उद्घाटन 31 जुलाई 2019 को किया गया था और इसे बंदी ही चलाते हैं।

  1. COVID-2019 has affected us all in various ways and it’s not going away soon. Taking care of ourselves, putting on masks, and keeping social distancing are the key factors you can follow. In such horrible times, these inmates are helping us with masks is an appreciable work. I hope people see their appreciable work and don’t judge inmates. These 5 women and 17 men are working hard and making our life easier. Introducing a radio system is a new step to being digitalized. And Vartika Nanda and Tinka Tinka are doing great work as being a bridge between these two worlds and giving us this information.

  6. Tinka Tinka is doing a commendable job in informing the public about how the prisons are functioning in these stressful times of the pandemic. The prison administration especially Sashikant Misra needs to be appreciated for complying with safety rules and taking all the preventive measures from an outbreak of covid inside prisons. The inmates also need to be thanked for helping the nation by making masks and sanitizers.

  7. We as a society should recognize the work done by prisoners during COVID 19 epidemic. They have helped the nation by manufacturing masks, PPE kits, hand sanitizers, etc. They have also made some great sacrifices, some were unable to go on parole while others were unable to have visitors.
