Prison Modelled On Cellular Jail In Andamans To Come Up In Delhi

Delhi will soon get its fourth jail in Narela to house high-risk prisoners, with the Centre allocating Rs 120 crore for the prison complex modelled on the Cellular Jail in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, officials said on Friday.

"The idea behind the project is to ensure that those prisoners, who are in jail because of offences committed against the state, remain in isolation. Although there are isolation facilities in the other three jails in Tihar, Rohini and Mandoli, the new prison complex will solely house such prisoners who are a threat to society," an official privy to the development said.

The Ministry of Home Affairs will be allocating Rs 120 crore for the construction of this prison complex, he said.

He said funds will also be sought from the Delhi government in the upcoming budget for the project.

"The Delhi Development Authority (DDA) has allotted land for the jail in Narela. According to the rough plan, the prison will have 250 cells and has been modelled on the Cellular Jail in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands," the official noted.

According to officials, the prison will also have reformative facilities like Yoga, a factory where inmates can engage themselves in making certain things, among others.

"The purpose of a jail is to serve as a reformation centre. This jail, even though it will house the likes of terrorists and gangsters, will have such facilities like yoga. We will soon chalk out a plan to have more of these engagements," the official said.

He, however, said the project is at a nascent stage and after the funds arrive from the Centre, the work on the project will be expedited.

Asked if the new prison will house high-profile prisoners from other neighbouring states as well, the official said, "The priority is to house prisoners lodged in Delhi jails, but if we receive a request or some directions, it will have to be followed."

Security features of the jail will include CCTV cameras, round-the-clock surveillance, isolation rooms with facilities to ensure that inmates do not interact much, high walls, and mobile jammers of superior technology to ensure that the prisoners do not get a whiff of the outside world.

Delhi has three prison complexes, namely Tihar, Rohini and Mandoli. All of these comprise central jails.

Tihar, which is considered one of the largest prison complexes in the world comprising nine central prisons, has a capacity to house 5,200 inmates, but 13,183 inmates are currently lodged in its different central jails.

Mandoli, which has six central jails, has a capacity of 1,050 but 2,037 inmates are currently staying there. Rohini, which has only one central jail, has a capacity of 3,776, but 4,355 inmates are lodged there, according to official data.

Some of the high risk inmates lodged in these jails are Olympic silver medallist Sushil Kumar, conman Sukesh Chandrasekhar and Kashmiri separatist leader Yasin Malik.

Long Lost Royal Bed May Finally Serve UK Monarch

Although a little larger than king size, an unusual bed stored in Britain's Palace of Westminster with a remarkable history could see its first royal sleepover ahead of Charles III's coronation in May.

The regal crib, which has its origins in a thousand-year-old tradition observed up to the time of Henry VIII in the 16th century, was lost for decades but is ready for service after a remarkable journey.

On the night before coronation, the sovereign traditionally spent the night at the Palace of Westminster, then the Royal Palace.

After falling out of favour, the tradition was revived two centuries ago for the coronation of George IV in 1821.

But that bed was destroyed in the fire that ravaged Parliament in 1834.

So another one, finished in 1858, was made but has "actually never been used the night before the coronation", parliamentary historian Mark Collins told AFP.

Discovery in mill

It was not ready for Queen Victoria's coronation in 1838 and subsequent monarchs chose not to spend the night at Westminster.

The bed was dismantled and stored away during World War II, forgotten as the Victorian era fell out of fashion.

Its whereabouts were unknown at the time of Elizabeth II's coronation in 1953 and it was not until the late 1970s that a V&A Museum expert, Clive Wainwright, launched an appeal to try to find the bed.

His efforts proved successful, with a family coming forward to reveal it was located at a woollen mill in Wales.

It had been bought at an auction for £100 ($119) in the 1960s by the parents of Richard Martin, now 70.

"They knew it was a special item, they knew that it was something important, but they didn't know where it had come from at all," said historian Collins.

And for about 20 years, the bed had a very busy life. One of the family's children, Benedict, was even born there in 1965.

'Night-time throne'

The fantastical piece stirred the imagination of a young Richard Martin on his way to the land of nod.

"When I was a child... we thought that whoever lived in the bed, who slept in the bed, would put their cigarette" in little holes carved in the wood, while reading or drinking tea, he told AFP.

"Nobody else had a bed like that", he said, calling it "a night-time throne".

The bed was bought back from the family and then restored.

The original royal red and purple hangings, adorned with the rose for England, the thistle for Scotland and the clover for Ireland, had long disappeared and were recreated in 1984.

The public can now see the piece following Speaker Lindsay Hoyle's decision to open the rooms up for tours, but it will be hidden from view during the King's coronation weekend, starting May 5.

The "State Bed" lives a stone's throw from Big Ben in a dedicated room in parliament's Speaker's quarters, with windows overlooking Westminster Bridge and the London Eye.

The upper part of the bed, which has a walnut frame with gilding and royal symbols, is over three metres (about 10 feet) high.

The question now remains whether Charles will captain its maiden royal voyage.

Ms Collins said it will be ready for action, whatever the decision.

"I don't think it'd be too long before we actually find out whether it'll be used again.

"The bed the bed is definitely ready, just in case."
