  "summary": "The Punjab government has launched a modern digital prison inspection system to enhance oversight and accountability within the province's correctional facilities. The new online portal and Executive Monitoring Dashboard provide real-time information on prison security, administration, prisoner status, and compliance with legal requirements. This system replaces conventional inspection procedures and includes details on each prison's authorized capacity, current inmate population, and admission and release statistics. Prisoners' personal information, such as age, educational background, health status, and vocational skill potential, is also accessible through the dashboard. The system aims to improve transparency, effective oversight, and accountability while transforming Punjab's prisons into model correctional and rehabilitation centers.",
