GAUSHALA
➢ PEDAGOGY AND OUTCOME
As a part of natural and conscious farming, a gaushala has also been setup inside the jail
with the intention of making the whole project sustainable and self-sufficient. Various cows,
rabbits and other animals have been provided a shelter inside the prison where the prisoners
have been given an opportunity to take care and look after them.
The idea is not just to create a sustainable basis for farming but also to reform the
prisoners by creating a home like environment and a space where they are treated like ordinary
beings.
This will also help the prisoners to feel compassion for others and create a pathway for
them to become more grounded and compassionate inside the prison and even when they are
released.
