Delhi has ended the practice of segregating sex workers and brothel-keepers from other female prisoners, following recommendations made during an ongoing Supreme Court-led review of discriminatory prison rules.

Delhi joins Himachal Pradesh in removing such provisions from prison administration, marking a significant step in prison reform and the protection of inmates' rights.
