Securing the human rights of prisoner is on the basic test of humanity and by which we contribute towards the positive development of society. Human dignity cannot be crushed in our era of human rights without the state being guilty of crime against humanity. Unfortunately, the legal framework for the protection of the rights of women prisoners with child alnongwith the rights of child in prison with mother where the child is not accused of any crime are not properly addressed in India. This paper is attempting to highlight the different aspects of rights getting affected due to the imprisonment of women on children which the judges may consider while imprisoning a woman, especially with child.
