After the inspection, Sahay said the murder of an inmate in the Dhanbad jail resulted in instruction to all jails of the state to remain on high alert so as to put a check on any such activities. She said they had searched the barracks, hospital and canteen of this jail.

Chauthe said though this search was taken up after the Dhanbad jail incident but they keep doing this in a month or two.
