Prisoner-Made Baked Goods for Bengaluru Republic Day Parade

In Bengaluru, India, prisoners from a central prison have been trained to make baked goods like biscuits and cupcakes.

These snacks will be served to important people and the public during the Republic Day celebrations.

The prison department started this program to help prisoners learn skills so they can find jobs when they are released.

A company called HCLTech is helping by supporting the sale of these products.

The prison plans to train more prisoners in other skills like sewing and textiles.

This is part of an effort to make the prison's skill programs more competitive and useful.
