Abstract

In today's world, women are quite important. The mother's talent plays a significant part in her life. Women in India are granted equal rights under the Indian Constitution. It also makes the state responsible for protecting women's rights and adhering to international human rights accords. But, on the flip side, women in jail confront a slew of issues, including the violation of their basic human rights, despite a slew of Supreme Court, High Court, and commission recommendations to the contrary. It causes problems in the prison that must be addressed. Female inmates in Indian prisons are lower than in other countries. It's possible that it's ignoring women's rights behind bars. The major goal of this study is to highlight the issues facing women in prison, including violations of their human rights, the state of women's prisons, a list of women's human and constitutional rights, and recommendations for changes. The purpose of this study is to examine the notions and approaches to human rights for prisoners in the Indian Constitution. In this sense, the text examines the early decades of constitutional human rights and their growth, as well as the role of judicial interpretations.
