Abstract

Prisoners are likely to have a higher concentration of socially excluded individuals. The fundamental justification of prisons is that in a culture that communicates its views through to the judiciary, it is essential to separate and confine those persons who have disobeyed the rules. On a variety of measures, women in jail had serious health problems. The goal of this study was to find out how women convicts felt about the effects of incarceration on their wellbeing. Short-sighted legislation answers to the issues of crime and drugs fashioned by the idea that the offenders they were putting to jail were cruel males—have resulted in an increase in the imprisonment rate for women. Rather than being a last option, jail has get to be the first line of defense for a wide variety of non and small offences, with female offenders disproportionately impacted. The monetary and social consequences of incarceration are frequently overlooked in this ideologically based legislation reaction. As a result, the government has squandered chances to dissuade women from committing crimes by reducing critical social care and training materials in order to pay already government budgets.
