To keep criminals at bay, the Ludhiana Central Jail now has its radio station, 'Radio Ujala Punjab,' which was opened by the assistant director-general of police (ADGP, jail) Praveen Kumar Sinha. The primary goal is to restore and remove anti-social characteristics. In society, prisoners risk estrangement and isolation. Providing a congenial environment and adequate welfare chances within the jail would aid in keeping convicts away from the criminal community.
