Convict Anand Nagaeshiya, a resident of Ambikapur, Chhattisgarh has returned home after spending 15 years in lock-up for murdering a relative. On returning home, he was glad to meet his family especially his daughter.
Notably, he did not get a chance to spend time with daughter Yamini or to witness her growing up as she was nearly a year old when he was sentenced to jail.
40-year-old Anand had killed his paternal uncle over a dispute back in 2005.
When he saw his daughter struggling to study from the online classes as she did not have gadgets amidst the coronavirus pandemic. His daughter is a student of Class 12 of a government school and aspires to be a doctor so she can render her service to humanity.
Without wasting a moment, Anand thought of buying a new smartphone for his daughter so she can resume gaining knowledge. "I was moved when my daughter told me she was not having any device to attend online classes. She wished to become a doctor and render her service to humanity by joining the medical profession. I realized the importance of education while in jail. I will leave no stone unturned to ensure my daughter doesn't face any hurdle to pursue her dream," he said.

Anand, however, has been released from jail early due to good conduct.
Rajendra Gaikwad, superintendent at Ambikapur Central Jail said, "He along with 19 others were recommended to the government for granting remission of sentence from Ambikapur Central Jail after they were found maintaining overall good behavior consistently. We saw Nageshiya, who was serving life imprisonment for murder, has downright reformed and disciplined himself and his name was cleared on the grounds of good conduct."
