Prisoners within the central prison within the Indian union territory of Puducherry in short omit their worries after they get started dancing.
The “dance treatment” is a part of a rehabilitation programme introduced to them by way of jail government.
It is an unconventional possibility – many Indian prisons are grim, overcrowded and violent areas that supply few alternatives for inmates to rebuild their lives.
However Puducherry jail officers say the programme is a success with prisoners – who’re all serving existence sentences – and that there’s a visual aid of their rigidity ranges.
Ravideep Singh Chahar, Inspector Common of prisons in Puducherry, says they now hope to make dance treatment an integral a part of the jail reform programme.
