0 307

The e-Visitor facility will also enable visitors to book their visit with relatives and friends lodged inside the jails of Tihar prison complex, on any two days of the week, except Saturday and Sunday.

Tihar jail has launched e-Visitor software which will help the jail inmates to meet their families and acquaintances living at far away places in the country through video conferencing facility.

“The software will be specially helpful for the poor family members of prisoners, who can not travel from distant places in the country to Delhi. It will start functioning from the end of this month,” said Mukesh Prasad, Additional IG of Tihar.

The e-Visitor facility will also enable visitors to book their visit with relatives and friends lodged inside the jails of Tihar prison complex, on any two days of the week, except Saturday and Sunday, Prasad said.

“Facility for preponing or postponing visit dates in the same week is coming up in the near future. Further, we are working on upgradation of the existing e-Prison Software to National Prisons Information Portal (NPIP).”

The visitors can book the meetings with inmates on the toll free numbers 011-28520202, 011-28526971, 1800-110-810, the officer said. A prisoner is allowed two interviews (meetings) every week with his relations or friends for half an hour duration, he added.
