The event commenced with an inaugural session attended by esteemed dignitaries, including Mr. Senthil (Regional Probation Officer), Mrs. Glory (Superintendent of the OH), and Mr. Ravi Kumar Paul (Founder of PRISM). They emphasized the importance of collaboration between OH staff and the PAATHAI team, highlighting the need for a structured rehabilitation process that fosters a reformative, rather than punitive approach. The morning sessions featured engaging activities and session  focusing on PAATHAI programme model, Understanding the reformative approach by Mr. Immanuel Angelo and juvenile psychology by Prof. D.
