Tinka Tinka Dasna is a tale of how the lives of five individuals have changed, following life imprisonment at Dasna jail and how they have searched for new meaning within their changed paradigms. Vartika ma’am gives a true representation of life inside prisons. Instead of sensationalizing, she has written about the true and lived experiences of inmates and even their children who unfortunately are also lodged inside prisons. She brings a softer side to inmates who are sad because they can’t meet their families, but even the smallest of things gives them joy like music, dancing, painting, etc. She has written two other books Tinka Tinka Tihar, Tinka Tinka Madhya Pradesh #tinkatinka #tinkamodelofprisonreforms #book

For the audience, it is easy to move on with their lives while forgetting about the impact media trials have on the families involved. In general, it’s disheartening to see the state of inmates who have already completed their due sentence again become part of a vicious cycle of humiliation, suspicion, and social isolation. We don't make enough effort to hear both sides of a story before jumping to conclusions. Also, the reality of jails in our country, which, contrary to popular belief, are much more humane and accepting towards one another. People need to be sensitive and aware of life in jail. As a progressive society, we must be inclusive of those trying to find their path again after coming out of jail.
The journey of Tinka Tinka Dasna is a noble step towards giving a voice to prisoners and making society hear their side of the story. The Tinka Tinka book series, authored by Dr. Vartika Nanda, is a crucial source of knowledge and insights into the working of Indian jails and the lives of prisoners. It beautifully incorporates literature with inspiring yet heartbreaking stories of prisoners behind bars. As a reader, it leaves a deep impression and forces us to think about that section of society that is stereotyped into one narrative.
