Meerut Jail Inmate Muskaan Relocated After Pregnancy Confirmation
Meerut jail inmate Muskaan, confirmed 1-month pregnant, shifted to new barrack as per jail manual. She'll receive pregnancy diet and medicines.
In a recent update from Meerut Jail, inmate Muskaan, who has been confirmed to be one-month pregnant through an ultrasound, has been shifted to another barrack. This move follows standard procedure outlined in the jail manual, which mandates separate accommodation for pregnant inmates.
According to prison officials, Muskaan was relocated to a new barrack where she will be staying with another female inmate named Sangeeta. This shift aims to ensure better care and privacy during her pregnancy.
Why Was Muskaan Shifted to Another Barrack?
As per the Meerut Jail Manual, pregnant prisoners must be placed in a separate barrack to ensure medical safety and to provide adequate attention. The authorities confirmed that Muskaan will now be provided with a pregnancy-specific diet, regular health check-ups, and prescribed medications essential for expecting mothers.
This development has sparked public interest and raised questions about how jails in India handle pregnant inmates and what rights and care protocols are offered under law.
