Social Justice Department to organise two-day training as part of Nervazhi
The Social Justice Department will organise a two-day life skill programme for inmates of the District Jail here as part of Nervazhi, a project implemented to modernise the probation system in the State.
‘Nervazhi’ has been rolled out to bring about a change in those who have committed non-heinous crimes through the probation system, instead of imprisoning them. Besides preventing overcrowding in jails, it significantly helps avoid the stigma attached to conviction, mingling of offenders with hardened criminals, preserves family and social life, and aids offenders’ transformation.
