Foreword
During the ancient times, Prisons were considered as a House of Captives where the
prisoners were held for deterrent and retributory punishment. Determined and sustained
efforts of the thinkers and human right activists in this field led to progressive transformation
of the concept of deterrence and retribution into reformation and rehabilitation. Therefore,
under the modern correctional philosophy prisons are now considered as correctional
institutions where the prisoners are sent after punishment for their reformation and
rehabilitation.
Prisons have now been considered as a community, reflecting the multifaceted sociocultural, socio-economic and socio-political scenario of the society as a whole. Prisoners of all
sections of society are confined in prisons and conscious efforts are being made to provide
such conditions to the prisoners in prisons as are conducive to their physical as well as mental
treatment and care, and to maintain their human dignity, as also visualized by our father of the
Nation, Mahatma Gandhi. Mahatma Gandhi had visualized crime and prisons in therapeutical
context and observed that Crime is the outcome of a disease mind and jail must have an
environment of hospital for their treatment and care. This principle has become a State Policy
in India and efforts have all along been made to protect all basic rights of prisoners to maintain
their human dignity during the period of their incarceration.
In view of this, the main objective of the prison administration is to make prison a safe
place by maintaining the required level of security and discipline and to make the best use of
prison stay period for reformation and rehabilitation of prisoners by providing them basic
minimum facilities in consistent with their human dignity. In India, prison is State subject.
Thus, States have the primary role, responsibility and authority w. r. t. prison laws, rules and
regulations. Moreover, the judiciary and union executive keep constant and close scrutiny over
prison management since long with a view to make it more transparent and humane.
The National Crime Records Bureau, Ministry of Home Affairs, has been compiling and
disseminating comprehensive compendium of statistical information related to various aspects
of prison inmates and prison administration since 1995. The present publication," Prison
Statistics India 2012", is the eighteenth in the series of annual publication. This publication
contains twelve chapters which covers different aspects like Prison institutions, Inmate
population and overcrowding in prisons, Type of prison inmates, Distribution of convicts and
undertrials under IPC and SLL crimes, Demographic particulars of inmates, Period of detention
of undertrials, Period of sentences, Vocational training, Jail inspections and visits, Strength and
Training of jail officials and Prison budget and expenditure along with graphs, tables and
maps.. However, brief contents of the report are summarised in Snapshots. It is hoped that this
report would meet the requirements of the legislators, Central & State/UT Governments, policy
makers, prison administrators, researchers, criminologists, media and other stakeholders.
I express my gratitude to the Directors General/ Inspectors General of Prisons of
States/UTs for sending validated data timely. The timely of publication of this annual report is
of paramount importance in preserving the relevance and utility of the information that this
report provides. Hence, I request the Directors General/ Inspectors General of Prisons of all
States/UTs to take personal interest in the matter so that the complete data reaches us
expeditiously by the end of April every year. In the context of capacity-building, needs of the
Prison departments of the States/UTs, NCRB, like previous years, will conduct training
programmes to impart the requisite knowledge and skills to the personnel dealing with data
compilation at the State/UT level this year also.
I also take this opportunity to record my appreciation of the sustained hard work put in
by the officers and staff of the Statistical Branch of the Bureau in coordinating with the Prison
Departments of the States/UTs and bringing out this report.
It is our continuous endeavour to enrich the content and presentation of this report. I
request the readers to be our partners in our enterprise by sending their suggestions and
inputs in the feedback form attached at the end of this report.

Chapter 1
Prison Institution
Introduction
Prison institutions are one of the
three main constituents of the criminal
justice system. In recent times there has
been considerable change in social
perception towards the prisoners. The
prisons are no longer regarded as places
for punishment only. They are now being
considered as reformatories and greater
attention is being given to ameliorate the
conditions in jails so that they have a
healthy impact on the prisoners in
developing a positive attitude towards life
and society. The ultimate purpose is to
integrate the prisoners in the society after
their release from the prison.
A comprehensive database has
been developed at the national level on all
aspects of these institutions which has
been found to be of immense use to the
prison authorities in planning various
activities connected with the prison
administration. The input forms have been
reviewed and made more comprehensive
in 2000 to collect data on every aspect of
prison activities. This report for the year
2012 is the eighteenth issue in the series.
Number of prisons in the States/UTs in
2012
Prison and its administration is a
State subject as it is covered by item 4
under List II in Schedule VII of the
Constitution of India. Prison establishments
in different States/UTs comprise several
tiers of jails.
The most common and standard jail
institutions which are in existence in the
States/UTs are better known as central
jails, district jails and sub jails. The other
types of jail establishments are women jails,
borstal schools, open jails and special jails.
Total number of jails in the

States/UTs given in Table 1.2 shows that
Maharashtra had the highest number (215
out of 1,394) of jails among the States/UTs
followed by Tamil Nadu (135), Madhya
Pradesh (124), Andhra Pradesh (121),
Rajasthan (119) and Karnataka (102).
Arunachal Pradesh has only one district jail
which started functioning since 2009.
Central jail
The criteria for a jail to be
categorised as a central jail differs from
State to State. However, the common
features observed in all the States/UTs are
that
the
prisoners
sentenced
to
imprisonment for a longer period (more
than 2 years) are confined in the central
jails, which have larger capacity in
comparison to other jails. These jails also
have rehabilitation facilities. Arunachal
Pradesh, Meghalaya, Andaman & Nicobar
Islands, Dadra & Nagar Haveli, Daman &
Diu and Lakshadweep do not have any
central jail in their territories. Both
Maharashtra and Tamil Nadu have the
highest number of 9 central jails each
followed by Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh,
Punjab, Rajasthan and Delhi (8 each).
The State/UT-wise information
relating to capacity of central jails is
presented in Table-2.2. The available
information regarding capacity for prison
inmates in central jails in respect of
States/UTs indicates that Maharashtra
(14,841), Tamil Nadu (14,127), Punjab
(12,575), Madhya Pradesh (11,603), Bihar
(11,560) and West Bengal (11,012) have
comparatively larger capacity followed by
Jharkhand (8,140), Rajasthan (8,013),
Gujarat (7,686), Uttar Pradesh (6,977),
Andhra Pradesh (6,813), Karnataka
(6,245) and Delhi (4,800).
Central jails in Punjab (1,065),
Madhya Pradesh (587), Karnataka (485),
Gujarat (480) and Maharashtra (427) have

comparatively
higher
capacity
to
accommodate female prisoners.
Maharashtra (2,361), West Bengal (2,132)

and Gujarat (1,480) (Table 2.4).
Women jail
District jail
District jails serve as the main
prisons in some of the States/UTs. States
which have considerable number of district
jails are Uttar Pradesh (54) followed by
Bihar (31), Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra
and Rajasthan (25 each), Assam (21),
Jharkhand (17), Haryana (16) and Andhra
Pradesh & Karnataka (15 each)(Table 1.2).
The district jails in Uttar Pradesh
(38,913), Bihar (16,566), Haryana (14,361),
Madhya Pradesh (6,911), West Bengal
(5,842), Maharashtra (5,841), Jharkhand
(4,534) and Rajasthan (3,809) have the
capacity of lodging a large number of
inmates with an average capacity of 721,
534, 898, 276, 487, 234, 267 and 152
inmates per jail respectively (Table 2.3).
Women jails exclusively for women

prisoners exist only in 13 States/UTs (Table
1.2).
Tamil Nadu and Kerala has 3
women jails each and Andhra Pradesh,
Rajasthan & West Bengal have 2 women
jails each. Bihar, Gujarat, Maharashtra,
Odisha, Punjab, Tripura, Uttar Pradesh
and Delhi have one women jail each. The
total capacity of women inmates was
highest in Tamil Nadu (1,569) followed by

Pradesh (380), Punjab (320), Maharashtra
(262), Kerala (232), Gujarat (200), Bihar
(83), Odisha (52) and Tripura (30)
(Table 2.5).
Borstal school
Comparatively higher capacity for

accommodation of female inmates was also
reported in district jails of Uttar Pradesh
(2,567) followed by Haryana (1,202), Bihar
and West Bengal (555 each) and Madhya
Pradesh (466).
Sub jail
Ten
States
have
reported
comparatively higher number of sub-jails
revealing a well organized prison set-up
even at lower formation. These States are
Maharashtra (172), Tamil Nadu (95),
Andhra Pradesh (94), Madhya Pradesh
(90), Karnataka (74), Odisha (67),
Rajasthan (60), West Bengal (33), Kerala
(29) and Bihar (16) while 8 States/UTs
have no sub-jails namely Arunachal
Pradesh, Haryana, Manipur, Meghalaya,
Mizoram, Sikkim, Chandigarh and Delhi
(Table 1.2).
The State of Odisha had the
highest capacity of inmates (10,272) in
various Sub-jails followed by Madhya
Pradesh (8,044), Andhra Pradesh (3,820),
Bihar
(3,506),
Rajasthan
(3,368),
Karnataka (3,107), Tamil Nadu (3,025),
The primary objective of borstal

schools is to ensure care, welfare and
rehabilitation of young offenders in a
different environment suitable for children
and keep them away from contaminating
atmosphere of the prison. The juveniles in
conflict with law detained in borstal schools
are provided various vocational trainings.
They are also given education with the help
of trained teachers.
Ten States namely, Tamil Nadu
(12), Andhra Pradesh, Haryana, Himachal
Pradesh, Jharkhand, Karnataka, Kerala,
Maharashtra,
Punjab
and
Rajasthan (1 each) have reported Borstal
schools in their respective jurisdiction
(Table 1.2). Tamil Nadu had the highest
capacity for keeping 653 inmates followed
by Punjab (500), Haryana (355), Rajasthan
(312), Karnataka (200), Maharashtra (105)
and Jharkhand (100). Haryana (195),
Himachal Pradesh (15) and Kerala (12) are
the only States which have reported
capacity for lodging female inmates in their
Borstal schools (Table 2.6). Existence of
borstal schools was not reported from
any of the UTs.
2
Open jail
Prisoners with good behaviour
satisfying certain norms prescribed in the
prison rules are admitted in open prisons.
Minimum security is kept in such prisons
and prisoners are engaged in agricultural
activities.
Only 15 States have reported about
the functioning of Open jails in their
jurisdiction.
Amongst these States,
Rajasthan has reported the highest number
of 23 open jails. Maharashtra has 5
followed by Kerala (3), Andhra Pradesh,
Gujarat, and Tamil Nadu (2 jails each). The
remaining 9 States Assam, Bihar,
Himachal Pradesh, Karnataka, Madhya
Pradesh, Odisha, Punjab, Uttarakhand and
West Bengal have one Open jail each.
Existence of such jails was not reported
from any of the UTs.
The highest capacity of inmates in

Chapter 2
Inmate population and Overcrowding in prisons

An important aspect of prison
administration is the population of inmates
that the authorities have to handle in the
prisons. One thing that comes out strikingly
on the basis of available data is that the
jails are over-crowded.
Data relating to the population of
both male and female inmates are collected
from the prison authorities in order to find
the
relationship
in
terms
of
occupancy/overcrowding
between
the
capacity available in prisons and the actual
number of prison inmates. The occupancy
in any jail changes on daily basis due to
addition of new prisoners and release of old
ones, nevertheless, an estimate of
population of inmates at the end of the year
would serve as a good indicator to
determine the occupancy rate.

# Occupancy Rate = Inmate population x 100

Total capacity
Occupancy rate <100 shows space available for inmates in prisons.
Occupancy rate >100 shows overcrowding in prisons.
15
occupancy rate defined as number of

inmates staying in jails against the
authorized capacity for 100 inmates has
been calculated to determine the 'Crowding
in Prisons'.
It is evident as per the information
available from States/UTs regarding
population of inmates in various prisons
(Table 2(A)), that the prison population
was satisfactorily managed during the
year 2012 in 13 States and 5 UTs as the
occupancy rate in these States/UTs
remained less than 100%. These States
and
UTs
are Haryana
(99.9%),
Maharashtra
(99.4%),
Uttrakhand
(99.2%),
Gujarat
(94.8%),
Andhra
Pradesh (88.2%), Jammu & Kashmir
(87.7%), Bihar (81.3%), Manipur (74.5%),
Chandigarh (73.4%), Odisha (71.4%),
Tripura (68.2%), Puducherry (68.0%),
Mizoram (65.1%), D&N Haveli (61.7%),
Tamil Nadu (60.1%), Nagaland (27.4%),
Daman & Diu (20.8%) and Lakshadweep
(0.0%). Chhattisgarh has reported the
highest overcrowding (252.6%) followed
by Delhi (193.8%), Uttar Pradesh
(169.0%), Punjab (133.4%), Meghalaya
(131.3%), Madhya Pradesh (127.7%),
Arunachal Pradesh (126.8%), Jharkhand
(124.5%), Goa (119.5%), Rajasthan
(116.6%), Sikkim (114.0%), Himachal
Pradesh (105.5%), Kerala (104.4%),
Assam (103.7%), A&N Islands (101.5%),
West Bengal (100.7%) and Karnataka
(100.3%).
Chart 2.2 depicts comparative

position of occupancy rates at the end of
the year 2011 and 2012. The occupancy
rate at All India level at the end of 2011 was
112.1% which remained almost same at
112.2% at the end of the year 2012. Only
two States reporting further overcrowding in
their prisons were Meghalaya (107.5% in
2011 to 131.3% in 2012) and Rajasthan
(100.5% in 2011 to 116.6% in 2012). The
States / UTs where the inmate population
was still more than the available capacity,
although the overcrowding declined at the
end of 2012, were A & N Islands (from
362.1% in 2011 to 101.5% in 2012),
Chhattisgarh (from 256.3% in 2011 to
252.6% in 2012), Delhi (from 194.0% in
2011 to 193.8% in 2012), Uttar Pradesh
(from 175.1% in 2011 to 169.0% in 2012),
Punjab (from 149.1% in 2011 to 133.4% in
2012), Madhya Pradesh (from 128.2% in
2011 to 127.7% in 2012), Jharkhand (from
128.1% in 2011 to 124.5% in 2012), Goa
(from 123.8% in 2011 to 119.5% in 2012)
and Assam (from 109.6% in 2011 to
103.7% in 2012).
Capacity for male and female

inmates and their occupancy rate in
various Jails for the year 2012 in respect
of States/UTs are also presented in Table
2.1. It is observed that the occupancy rate
of such prisons during the period under
consideration was high against the
available capacity for the female inmates
in the State of Uttarakhand (153.6%)
followed by Chhattisgarh (150.3%), Delhi
(135.0%), Goa (112.0%), Jharkhand
(106.9%) and Uttar Pradesh (102.8%).
Chart 2.1 depicts the actual male
and female inmates in different States/UTs
at the end of the year 2012.

Chapter - 8
Vocational training in prisons

Training of prisoners in various
vocational skills in the Prison Institution has
received a lot of importance in almost all
the States/UTs. These training programmes
provide opportunities for the prison inmates
to engage themselves in fruitful pursuits
during the term of their sentence in jails.
Training for prison inmates not only affords
value for ones work but also makes the
prisoners learn skills which would enable
them to follow a vocation after their release
from the jail.
The gainful work done by the jail
inmates not only provides a corrective
approach to the psyche of the offender but
also goes a long way in developing a
responsive and respectful attitude in them
towards the society. The prisoners not
only develop the self confidence and self
esteem out of the valuable labour put in by
them but these activities also lead them
towards earning a honourable livelihood
after their release from the prison.
The training facilities available in the
jails depend on the local conditions. The
availability of raw materials, local market
needs, demands and marketing of finished
products mainly decide the vocational
training facilities available in any jail
premises.
Table 8(A) provides information on
various
vocational
training
facilities
available in the States and UTs. A total of
52,228 prisons inmates were provided with
various vocational training during the year
2012 (details can be seen in the Table 8.1).
The number of jail inmates involved in
various training programmes in the
States/UTs of Madhya Pradesh, Uttar
Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Gujarat, Delhi,
Punjab, Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh,
West Bengal and Bihar were 8,261, 8,140,
6,107, 5,737, 5,084, 2,846, 2,292, 1,868,
1,706 and 1,651 respectively during the

year 2012.
The maximum prison inmates were
trained in weaving (12.0%)(6,249 out of
52,228) followed by tailoring (8.1%)(4,245
out of 52,228), carpentry (8.1%)(4,208 out
of 52,228), agriculture (5.9%)(3,095 out of
52,228) and soap & phenyle (0.9%)(486
out of 52,228) (Table-8.1). States/UTs wise
details reveal that the maximum number of
inmates trained in agriculture was reported
in Madhya Pradesh (1,766), carpentry in
Gujarat (1,634), canning in Assam (129),
tailoring in Delhi (986), weaving in Gujarat
(1,772), soap & phenyle in Uttar Pradesh
(164) and handloom in Madhya Pradesh
(167).
Value of goods produced by inmates
The training of jail inmates in the
vocational trades resulted in production of
articles which have the market value. The
details of the gross value of such produce
in different States and UTs are given in
Table- 8.2.
Delhi had reported the highest
gross value of sale proceeds of ` 2,885.0
lakhs earned by the jail inmates followed
by Bihar (` 1,708.6 lakhs), Uttar Pradesh
(` 1,456.1 lakhs), Kerala (` 1,255.3 lakhs),
Tamil
Nadu
(` 1,156.0
lakhs),
Maharashtra (` 1,143.1 lakhs), Gujarat
(` 818.3 lakhs), Andhra Pradesh (` 577.0
lakhs), Jharkhand (` 296.6 lakhs),
Chhattisgarh (` 269.5 lakhs) and Punjab
(` 266.3 lakhs). The value of goods
produced
per inmate was highest in
Delhi (` 23,817.4) followed by Chandigarh
(` 21,812.0), Kerala (` 18,069.7), Tamil
Nadu (` 8,760.9) and Gujarat (` 7,063.4)
during the year 2012.

Deaths in jails
Death of a prisoner is always a
matter of serious concern for prison
administration. Sometimes such deaths
lead to law and order problems. Deaths in
jails have been broadly classified into two
categories i.e. natural deaths and
unnatural deaths.
Unnatural deaths
include suicide, murder by inmates, death
due to firing, death due to negligence or
excesses by jail personnel, etc.
Rajasthan (15), Bihar (13), Andhra

Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh (12 each),
Tamil Nadu (8), Karnataka, Odisha and
West Bengal (7 each) and Haryana (6).
Most of the unnatural deaths have
occurred due to suicide (87) followed by
deaths due to assault by outside elements
during transit or inside prison (10), the
state of Bihar has accounted for 6 out of
10 such deaths during 2012.
A total of 1,471 prisoners were

reported dead in jails due to natural and
unnatural causes during 2012 in the
country out of which 1,345 were natural
deaths and 126 were due to unnatural
causes.
Natural deaths accounted for
91.4% of the total deaths. Uttar Pradesh
has reported the highest number of 344
natural deaths followed by Punjab (120),
Madhya Pradesh (96), Bihar (93), West
Bengal (81), Maharashtra (75), and
Andhra Pradesh (74).
Punjab has reported the highest

number of 17 suicides out of 87 suicides
in prisons followed by Uttar Pradesh (10)
and Rajasthan (9) such suicides
respectively. A total of one execution
from Maharashtra was reported in the
country during 2012.
Among the unnatural deaths,

Punjab has reported the highest
number (17) of deaths followed by
2 out of 4 deaths due to murder by

inmates were reported from Uttar
Pradesh. One such death was reported
each from Jharkhand and Maharashtra.
Details may be seen in Tables 9.1 and
9.2.

and trained for the management and

administration of jail institutions, are posted
in all the jails. This class of staff plays a
major role and forms a large percentage of
the total jail staff in various jails. The jail
cadre staff is supervised and controlled by
officers and is supported by the correctional
staff, medical staff (exclusively for the jail
and its inmates) and the other ministerial
staff.
Table-11.1 may be referred for
further details.
followed by Goa (472), Karnataka (469),

Rajasthan (440), Madhya Pradesh (404),
Kerala (366), Punjab (363), Uttar Pradesh
(362), Haryana (361), Chhattisgarh (360)
and Maharashtra (345) during 2012.
An analysis of the sanctioned and

actual staff strength in jails shows that the
actual strength of the jail staff posted
against the sanctioned strength is quite
satisfactory in most of the States / UTs
baring Punjab (65.8%), Haryana (58.7%),
Rajasthan (56.0%), Gujarat (47.1%),
Chhattisgarh
(44.6%),
Uttarakhand
(40.0%), Jharkhand (36.8%) and Bihar
(21.1%) where the percentage of the actual
strength against the sanctioned strength
are below the national average percentage
(66.3%). Nagaland had reported 99.1%
personnel in position against the sanctioned
strength during 2012.
Training of jail personnel on various

aspects of correctional administration is of
vital importance and the available statistics
shows that only a few States/UTs have
made use of such facilities available in the
various National and State level institutions.
Basic training courses, Prison management
courses, Good governance, Computer and
On-line prison management information
system, AIDS awareness, Personality
development of jail officers, The RTI Act,
Human rights, In-service refresher courses
and Re-orientation courses were the areas
in which various categories of jail personnel
in the States & UTs were trained during the
year 2012. National Institute of Criminology
and Forensic Science, National Institute of
Social Defence, RICAx (Regional Institute
of Correctional Administration), National
Human Rights Commission, BPR&D
(Bureau
of
Police
Research
and
Development), etc. organise training
courses periodically for prison officials to
sensitize them and give them a better
understanding
of
correctional
administration.
Number of inmates per staff

The
prison
institutions
are
managed by three categories of personnel
viz., jail cadre staff, correctional staff and
the medical staff. The number of inmates
per official is a real indicator of how well
inmates are looked after in the prisons.
The number of inmates per jail officials
(like DG/IG, SP, Jailor, Warder, etc.),
correctional staff and the medical staff is
given in Table 11(B).
The highest number of inmates per
jail official was reported from Bihar and
Jharkhand (21 each) followed by
Chhatisgarh (17), Gujarat and Uttar
Pradesh
(13
each),
Rajasthan,
Uttarakhand & Delhi (12 each), Punjab
(11) and A & N Island (10). Uttar Pradesh
and
Chandigarh
have
only
one
correctional staff for 80,311 and 734
inmates respectively. We may assess the
health services available to inmates in
prisons on the basis of the medical staff
strength. A total of 667 inmates per medical
staff were observed in Jharkhand per
Actual strength of women jail

officials of different ranks (State/UT-wise) is
given in Table-11.2.
Training of Jail Staff
25 States/UTs provided training to

their personnel during the year 2012. The
highest number of officials (1,121) were
trained in Andhra Pradesh during the year
2012 followed by Madhya Pradesh (713),
Maharashtra (582), West Bengal (558),
Delhi (487), Gujarat (274) and Kerala (269).
