Manu Sharma, 43, who was handed a lift sentence for the 1999 murder of model Jessica Lal and was released from Tihar Jail.
According To Manu, going to jail is one of the most difficult and scary things that can happen to anyone. You face a number of hardships in Tihar, but in time you learn to live with them. What is harder to get accustomed to is the isolation and a lack of knowledge of your family’s welfare.
The constant vigil that one has to maintain to protect oneself from the ruffians who rule the inside of the jails is mind-numbing. They can come at you at any time.
Going forward, I hope and believe that I will be able to live a peaceful and fruitful life where I can support my family and carry on helping the unseen and unheard children of jail inmates, who are not currently being provided the means and aid that they require.
