Tinka Tinka Prisons: HT City: 22 December, 2020

Tinka Tinka started its formal journey in 2013. From Tihar Prisons to Dasna, Madhya Pradesh and then several jails across the country, Tinka has become my prayer. तिनका रोज बहुत कुछ देखता है, सोखता है। अपनी चुप्पी के बीच हौले कदमों से चल रहा है- तिनका तिनका। Thank you HT City for giving this space, attention and honour. #vartikananda #tinkatinka #prison #jail
