Rehabilitation of prisoners into society requires imparting life skills and making them employable. Or institute compulsory military service for prisoners - not for the dangerous criminals though :)

This will save Huge amount of Revenue of GOVT.

Jail officers need to be trained to behave in a humane way with prisoners yet remaining strict and vigilant always. A multimedia programme concerning woes of jail inmates and jail officers should be aired on national and private channels to make common people aware of the life in prisons so that none commit crime to get in there in the first place.

Prisoners should also have their own bank account open while in prison so that the money they earn through making jail-products should be deposited for their own benefit upon their release from jail to start a new life and career.

Social acceptance- If prisoners during their prison time are taught skills that would help them start their own micro business with little financial investment then gradually they would get social acceptance as they won't be a burden on anyone. Such businesses could be about henna designing, pappad /achaar making, sewing, wool weaving, knife sharpening, massaging etc.
