Bengaluru: Former minister and Congress legislator, U T Khader on Friday said that Hindus and Muslims should be put together in the same prison cell, letting them fight out among themselves.
Khader said, ” Why are Hindus and Muslims put in separate cells? Put them together and let them fight out among themselves. Or else they will continue to create nuisance after coming out of the jail.”
He was speaking during the debate on the Karnataka Prison Development Board bill that was passed in the Karnataka assembly on Friday.
Opposing the bill, Khader said, “The bill should have tougher provisions. Prisoners are getting all kinds of facilities in jail as they are backed by a few politicians. If the rules are tough in jails, then criminals will think twice before committing a crime. Also, those who are imprisoned for the first time, should be sent to hospitals where their minds should be transformed. They need proper guidance, if they are sent to jail they will meet other criminals there and become hardcore criminals by the time they come out.”
Former speaker, Ramesh Kumar, said, ” The condition in the jails must be improved. Prisoners smuggle things to jail in the presence of a few police personnel. Also, several scams are happening in jails. All this must be stopped.”
