Andaman Jail Cellular Jail (Kala Pani) 

Port Blair. 

      It was a Colonial Prison in India and it was used by the British government for exiling political prisoners to the remote archipelago. Now it is a National Monument. Kala Pani virtually meant Cruelest treatment to the prisoners till Death. The jail each of the seven wing has three stories and there was no Dormitories and a total 696 cells. Each cell was 4.5 X 2.7 meters and night was 3 meters. The cruelest punishment was inflicted upon the prisoners and finally they were hung to death. It was really a different feeling which cannot be explained when you listen to the Light & Sound show. You can still feel the pain and the sacrifices of those political leaders. I could not stop my tears and could feel the inspirations they had.
