"View with which jails are seen in society needs to be changed. Not every person jailed is criminal by nature, sometimes it's circumstances which force their involvement. But it is a necessary process to keep society functional," he said.
He also said that jail administration is responsible for the re-induction of those who are not natural, born, habitual criminals into society.
The 6th All India Prison Duty Meet (AIPDM) was held at TransStadia in Ahmedabad's Kankaria, a biennial event organised by the Bureau of Police Research and Development, from September 4-6.
The event was inaugurated by Shah and was attended by Gujarat Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel and Minister of State for Home Harsh Sanghavi.
Participants from the administration and employees under police departments from around 19 States and Union Territories were expected to have attended the three-day event.
Ahmedabad had last organised AIPDM in 2007 which was the second-ever meeting.
The Home Minister will also participate in the curtain raiser of 36th National Games 2022 and Closing Ceremony of 11th Khel Mahakumbh at around 7 pm at TransStadia.
The 36th National Games also known as National Games Gujarat 2022 will be held in Gujarat from September 27 to October 10. The inaugural function of the National Games will be held at the Narendra Modi Stadium at Motera. Ahmedabad, Vadodara, Surat, Rajkot, Gandhinagar and Bhavnagar will host 36 different games as a part of the event.
