Punjab govt distributes lunch boxes, water to prisoners

To accelerate Chief Minister Punjab Maryam Nawaz’s jail reforms agenda, concerned authorities distributed meal boxes and water among prisoners today before they appeared in courts.

Almost 7000 inmates were provided lunch boxes and cold water in 43 jails of the province.

Furthermore, flour-grinding machines and tractors are being placed in jails to cultivate jail land.

Dunya News reported that the jails’ authorities are dedicated to cultivating fresh vegetables and wheat for healthy meals for inmates, adding that the Punjab government also takes care of the people behind bars.
