Indore: In its bid to keep jail inmates abreast about current developments outside the world, central jail of Indore has set up its own radio channel 'Jail Vaani-FM 18.77'.
Through the radio channel, prisoners are hopeful of enjoying entertainment programmes, while also becoming aware of the happenings around the world.
The radio channel will also provide the jail inmates with information on health issues. "The administration wants jails to be like correctional facilities. Through this radio channel the jail inmates will get to know what is happening in the world," said Alka Sonkar, jail superintendent.
Sonkar credied Madhya Chief Minister Shivraj Singh for the initiative. "He is sensitive in this matter, and gave a lot of encouragement. We have started the radio station by taking due permission for this," she added.
