It explains daily experiences, the overcrowded inmate rooms, lack of toiletries, inadequate poor diet, dysfunctional ablution facilities and their resort to bucket system, lack of clothing and bedding for both convicted prisoners and those in remand. Furthermore, it deals with how correctional services prisoners relate on daily basis, and who decides parole issues, how inmates are selected for courses, run by prison services. It discusses how good behaviour and discipline assist in 'promotion.'
