Underlining the issue of undertrials languishing in jail, President Droupadi Murmu called on the government and the judiciary to find ways to solve the crisis. President Droupadi Murmu pointing to undertrial numbers, asks why do we need more jails “I hear these days that we will have to make new prisons because prisons are overcrowded. If we are moving towards progress as a society, then why do we need new jails. We should be closing down existing ones,” President Murmu said
