The prison system is to build into a rehabilitation system which will enable an individual to be civilized and contributing towards the society while re-entering. A convicted person can be turned into positively motivated and disciplined individual through Architectural reconsideration in space, spatial impact and organized arrangement. With changing time, the attitude for the correction facilities of these people has to be changed to have a better and civilized society.
