Implementation of Legal Reforms Including Reforms in Indian Jails & relief to the under trials

It is estimated that India has over 3.20 Lakh under trials in Indian Jails. Most of these people are caught for very petty crimes but remain stuck in jails because they cannot afford to furnish bail amounts. Under trials often face physical and psychological abuse, sometimes even torture in jails. They also contribute in overcrowding of our already overly populated jails.

We at BWF, work in the area of legal reforms and aid, to many such under trial prisoners by providing legal and financial help to those who have been granted bail but are still languishing in jails because they cannot afford to pay for their bail bonds.

​

Our Vision ​​

• Many undertrial prisoners remain in jail for long periods because of slow judicial processes, often even after being granted bail due to their inability to furnish small-value bail bonds.

• Betterworld Foundation aims to provide legal and financial support to such individuals, helping them secure release and return to society with dignity.

• BWF also seeks to work with the Government and Law Ministry to promote legal reforms, including effective use of plea bargaining, to reduce court burden and ensure timely justice.
