    A man is forced to commit a crime because of two reasons - hunger and money. When these two things are well arranged, the crime rate will be decreased. The step taken by the Kolkata Jail Association is highly appreciable. The skills these prisoners have achieved can be utilized when they get acquitted. The skill makes these prisoners independent and self-earner. Moreover, a jail is a place where prisoners are kept to repent on their crime and learn the lesson that they will not repeat it. Not only jails but also common people should give a chance to prisoners to live their lives with pride. Regards, Luk Stunning

    It's good that these inmates are doing something productive with their jail time. I told my mates at https://leather-toolkits.com/about-me/ that something like this should happen, and it will be very beneficial. Now it has happened.

    I use prescription contact lenses, and being able to find white contact lenses in my desired strength is actually quite hard... especially at a reasonable price!

    Jails are the best place for smuggling. They are not easily regulated. If anything is easy in it, it is corruption. The leather couch repair kit gets a lot of attention in jail because everyone wants something of value that can last more than their years in prison.

    It's good that they've given these jail inmates something to do. Give them practice with waltery synthetic leather China now, and they will be able to get good jobs once they are free. I think this is a good step towards a peaceful world.

    I think this is great for the inmates. It will teach them something while they serve their jail time. Maybe they can make permanent eyeliner, as well. I think if they learn these skills, it will help them find a job once they get out.
