The present investigation “A Study on the behavioral changes among the youth prisoners of Naini Jail (18 – 35 yrs)” was carried out at Naini Central Jail, Prayagraj. A questionnaire consisting of around 40 questions was prepared to examine their behavioural change of the prisoners. The prisoners were interviewed for their Marital status, religion, situations that led them to commit crime, years of sanctioned imprisonment and behaviour before and after imprisonment. Hence, it has been concluded that, problems with their marital status, religion etc. all provide a lot of unsupervised time and conducive environment to the youth by encouraging them to get involved in easy and illegal ways of earning money or fulfilling their desires. A positive and educative environment, high quality work opportunities, healthy relationships, vocational trainings, adequate counselling, from Government can altogether catalyse a diminished criminal behaviour.
