The petitioner contended that the drinking water stored for jail inmates in the Central Jail, Jabalpur, is likely contaminated due to improper storage practices. As a result, inmates are possibly being supplied non-potable drinking water, which raises concerns about their health and safety.<\/p>\n<p>The Court issued notice to the respondents, and the Additional Advocate General accepted the notice on behalf of the State. The Court directed &#8212;<\/p>\n<ol style=\"list-style-type: decimal;\">\n<li>\n<p>The Superintendent of Central Jail, Jabalpur, to have the drinking water tested by an approved laboratory to
