Eighty-nine inmates of Arthur Road Jail appeared for Gandhi Peace exam organised by the Bombay Sarvodaya Mandal.

Anda cell (egg shaped high-security cell) inmates also appeared for the exam, out of which two topped the test with 79 out of 80 marks, T R K Somaiya of the Mandal said. A jail official also appeared for the exam held yesterday, results of which were out the same day.

"I came to know true value of truth and 'ahimsa'. I realised the mistakes made by me and took a vow not to go astray in life," one of the Anda cell prisoners expressed his view in feedback after the exam.
