Abstract
The Indian prison system has been infamous for its apathy towards mentally ill inmates and its total inertia as far as specialist treatment is concerned. In these circumstances, the Supreme Court's recent judgement in the Sheela Barse Case holds out hope for the future. Ram Anand Shankar reviews the judgement.
