00:00When I came to Jhelum, I saw that there is no painting here, so I thought I should learn

00:14painting here.

00:15So we started learning painting, and we are teaching painting to other people as well.

00:25Here you can get all kinds of paintings.

00:28Brush, paint, canvas, cloth, everything is available.

00:35In Raipur Central Jail, Chardiwari, a painting of an artist is being prepared from the canvas

00:39workshop.

00:40These hands that do crime can now be seen walking on the canvas.

00:44Prisoners are filling the colours of their art with their paintings.

00:48They are creating their future with this.

00:51These days, artists are doing their art with the help of painting.

00:56You can see a child painting with his painting on the wall.

00:59It is a very beautiful painting.

01:02The students are also teaching art here.

01:05We are teaching painting to the students in the city centre as well.

01:11We are teaching paintings.

01:12You can come here and learn, and then you can learn.

01:17I thought I should learn painting.

01:19So I started learning painting.

01:21And I am teaching painting to other people as well.

01:25How many people are you and since when have you been teaching painting?

01:29Right now we are 10 people.

01:31Out of which 4 people we do it well.

01:336 people are still learning.

01:35What pictures have you made so far?

01:37And how many are you making?

01:39Sir, as you can see right now,

01:41I have made one for the Chief Minister.

01:43I have made one for Lord Ram and his mother.

01:48I have made one for Krishna and Radha.

01:50I have made many more paintings like this.

01:54How did you come up with this idea?

01:56Did you take any training?

01:58No, sir. After coming to jail,

02:00when I was not able to spend my free time,

02:02I thought of how to make good use of my free time.

02:07So I started learning painting.

02:09He came to jail because of a crime.

02:11But here he understood his inner art.

02:14He is learning the details of painting every day for 2-4 hours.

02:19All this was made possible with the help of the game administration.

02:22Now in painting art, experts say that

02:24after being released from jail,

02:26he will adopt it as his profession.

02:29I want to work in painting.

02:31Why?

02:32So that when I am released,

02:34I can make a living.

02:37How many people are you and since when have you been teaching?

02:39Right now there are 10 people.

02:41Do you like your work?

02:43Yes, I like it.

02:45How long do you work?

02:473-4 hours.

02:49What have you made so far?

02:51Right now I have made one for Radha Krishna,

02:53one for Lavakosha Mata Sita,

02:55and one for Manliya CM.

02:59So did you make them after seeing them or by looking at the photos?

03:03I made them by looking at the photos.

03:05What about the rest?

03:07I made them by looking at the photos.

03:09Are you training the rest?

03:13Yes, I am.

03:15Have you ever trained before this?

03:17No.

03:18So how did you come here?

03:20When I came here to the jail,

03:22I saw that I got a job.

03:24For the past 4-5 years,

03:26Ekadip has been painting.

03:28But in the past year,

03:30his interest in painting has increased even more.

03:32The jail administration is providing him with paint,

03:34brush and canvas.

03:36So that Ekadip can stand on his own two feet.

03:38After getting out of jail,

03:40he can live his life well.

03:44For the past year,

03:46we have provided him with paint, brush and canvas.

03:50This has increased his interest.

03:52The girls have improved their art.

03:58He has made paintings of Ram Mandir,

04:02Mani Chief Minister

04:04and Mani Home Minister.

04:08Has he been trained in this?

04:11These things remain within the prisoners.

04:18They just need to be given a direction.

04:20They have been given a direction by the jail administration.

04:23Apart from the daily routine,

04:25the prisoners have an interest

04:27which prevents them from doing negative things.

04:30We are making them work in this direction.

04:34It is said that if a person takes a lesson from his past

04:36and moves forward in life,

04:38he can live his life well.

04:40This is what the prisoners of Raipur Central Jail

04:42are doing these days.

04:44It would be better if this art gets its place.
