50 साल से सलाखों के पीछे है अंबिका

मानवाधिकार कार्यकर्ता श्रुति नागवंशी का कहना है कि सरकारों की अनदेखी के कारण सालों से लोग कैद हैं। कई कैदियों से तो उनके घर वाले भी मिलने नहीं आते हैं और कई गंभीर बीमारियों से ग्रसित हैं। #मानवाधिकार आयोग और संगठनों ने कई बार सरकारों के सामने बात रखी लेकिन गंभीरता से नहीं लिया गया। आखिरकार 70 वर्ष का शख्स समाज में आएगा तो कौन सा अपराध करेगा। नीति निर्धारकों को गंभीरता से सोचकर अधिक आयु के कैदियों के प्रति संवेदनशीलता और मानवीय दृष्टिकोण अपनाने की जरूरत है।

On 25 May 2006 Handicraft Development Commissioner visited Varanasi and declared that the policy of 'Handloom Mark' would be implemented in favour of weavers by July 2006. It would be greatly helpful for weavers, as the quality of weavers' goods would not be suspected in foreign countries. Further he told that the central Government has given her consent to start Credit Guarantee Scheme in favour of Handloom weavers. Under this scheme weavers can get up to Rs 25000/ without any Guaranty. He also exchanged his views with weavers over the demand of 'Yarn Depot'.
