Tinka Tinka Foundation was honoured for its exceptional work towards prisoners’ reform, welfare and behavioural improvement in the jails of Uttar Pradesh, the state with largest prison population in India. The commendation certificate was given by DGP/ ADG, Jail Administration and Correctional Services Shri S.N.Sabat on the occasion of Republic Day, 26th January, 2024.
Tinka Tinka Foundation is a Public Charitable Trust. The organisation is trying to join all jails together through creative pursuits and education. At Tinka Tinka, founded by Dr. Vartika Nanda, the objective is to foster positive change, reformation and healing in prisons. Tinka also aims to become a bridge between prisons, the judiciary and society. Tinka Tinka believes that inmates are human resources who can contribute in the process of development, growth, and nation-building.
Tinka Tinka has conceptualised, trained and executed prison radio in District Jail, Agra, Jails of Haryana and Uttarakhand. Tinka Jail Radio is the only podcast in India dedicated to prison reforms. Tinka Tinka India and Tinka Tinka Bandini Awards are the exclusive national awards dedicated to prison, honouring both inmates and the jail officials for their significant contribution.
Written and published as part of the projects, the three books – Tinka Tinka Tihar, Tinka Tinka Dasna, and Tinka Tinka Madhya Pradesh are credible and original writings on human rights and prison reforms. Ever since the completion of the first project – Tinka Tinka Tihar in 2013, the movement has crossed many milestones, and has made a significant impact in the field of prison reforms.
