Ever wondered what life inside a prison actually feels like? People in Hyderabad can now experience it first-hand, legally. A new prison-themed attraction called the Telangana Prisons Museum, along with a unique programme named “Jail Anubhavam” or “Feel the Jail Experience”, has officially opened at Chanchalguda in Hyderabad, offering visitors a simulated prison stay complete with jail food, prison accommodation, strict routines and correctional discipline.
The unusual initiative was inaugurated on Tuesday by Telangana Governor Shiv Pratap Shukla at the State Institute of Correctional Administration (SICA), Chanchalguda. The project is already drawing attention online for giving ordinary citizens the chance to voluntarily spend either 12 hours or 24 hours living under prison-style conditions.
