It is said that a person who feels appreciated will always do more than what is expected. Tinka Tinka's initiative to find the hidden talents within the inmates and giving them a platform would definitely be the most appropriate way, in my opinion, to give these people a chance for betterment. These awards are "national awards" and would attract more people to join the movement which would definitely reduce their tendency to commit crime once they're out of the prison, and help them not to get into that dark world again.

It is great news that Tinka Tinka Movement has completed five years and in 2019, Tinka Tinka Awards were conducted for the fifth time. The general opinion about prisons is that it is a place meant for people who have committed offences and no one could have thought that prison inmates can be creative and talented. From the above articles we can understand that there are many prisoners and prison authorities who have done so much during their time in prisons. They deserve to be praised for their work. Tinka Tinka Awards is a message to the inmates that they can form an identity for themselves through their talent. #tinkatinka #vartikananda #prisonreforms
one and only type of national awards given to inmates
This gave me goosebumps! its so ironic to see how can a low point of someone's lives actually get the best out of them. somewhere deep down inside these inmates are challenging their destiny by giving it back with a smile and some beautiful art.
Feeling Proud!

Tinka Tinka Awards happens to give the boost to inmates to go on and explore and shape their talents and this can make people better human beings because that would lead to exploring one's inner personality. #tinkatinka #vartikananda #jail #prison
The journey of this initiative is to be appreciated, to say the least. From starting in 2015 to bringing hope to the inmates of several jails in India, this initiative is going places. Much admiration and hoping to see more of such initiatives to happen in the future. the awards as you can see through the youtube channels are more or less similar to the ceremonial awards shows that happen anywhere else. This gives the inmates a feeling that they are not confined in jail and are living more in the same world as we are, which is a beautiful way to help provide them wth hope too.

This is a great initiative by Tinka Tinka. This award will give incentive to inmates to develop their talents and creativity. The work of Dr. Vartika Nanda, the founder of the movement of prison reforms in India, is a testament to the idea that rehabilitation and not punishment is the answer. I hope new categories are also added to the awards. It is also very good to know that organizations are recognizing the hard work of prison staff and administrations. It will motivate them to do better. #awards #tinkatinka #vartikananda #prisonreforms

The initiative of Tinka Tinka foundation to organise Tinka Tinka Awards and Tinka Tinka Bandhini Awards every year is commendable. The foundation is motivating inmates to explore their hidden talents in the field of art and paintings. It also emphasises on the special efforts made by inmates towards their co inmates and jail. A special award is for jail adminstration for their contribution for the jail. Dr. Vartika Nanda has made enormous efforts for inmate welfare. She has started jail radio in the jails of Haryana, Uttar Pradesh and Uttarakhand. Here she trains the selected inmates to work as RJ s in their respective jails. The motive behind is to develop communication skills, to do better when back in society. A few inmates like Sheru , Jatinder, Kashish from jails of Haryana have sung songs which were released by the foundation in You Tube channel in Podcast voiced and directed by Dr. Nanda herself. THese podcast are unique in itself as these are the first ever podcast on inmates and jails. #vartikananda #tinkatinka #prisonreform #jail radio #tinka awards
