Abstract

This chapter draws on the experience of Prayas, a field action project of the Tata Institute of Social Sciences (TISS), Mumbai, working towards facilitating legal aid and bail for poor undertrial prisoners through a collaborative approach of social workers and lawyers, working across six prisons in Maharashtra. The chapter is written based on my experience of being associated with Prayas as a Research and Documentation Officer since October 2019. The data on the undertrial prisoners are maintained in the Management Information System (MIS) based on demographics, case-related information and services provided (intervention) by the respective social work and legal fellow working on the case. My role entailed monitoring the MIS database and the findings of the chapter are based on the analysis of data procured in the form of an excel sheet downloaded from the MIS to generate quantitative reports. Qualitative experiences are drawn based on internal reports and my interaction with Prayas social workers and fellows working with undertrial prisoners across six prisons The chapter captures undertrials’ marginalised backgrounds and related difficulties in accessing free legal aid, the crucial role of social workers and lawyers in facilitating the release of undertrials on bail. The chapter concludes with suitable suggestions to decongest the overcrowding of undertrials in prisons and the need for criminal justice social work i.e., placement of trained social workers in prisons to rehabilitate and reconstruct the lives of the marginalized groups coming in contact with the criminal justice system.
