Mysore/Mysuru: In a first of its kind initiative, Mysuru Central Prison authorities have chalked out a proposal to supply freshly cooked food to the prisoners in hotbox. The authorities concerned have invited tenders from the local licensed vendors and registered firms to supply different capacity hotbox.
Over 800 prisoners are lodged in the jail and as per the manual, the dinner is provided by 6.30 pm. However, the prisoners wait till night to eat, by keeping food with them. Till then, the food will lose its freshness, which may take a toll on their health upon consumption.
