(a)A female inmate admitted through a court order will be discharged under orders of the court or with the permission of the Chief Inspector. A female inmate admitted through police shall not be discharged or handed over to any one without the order of a court of Magistrate I Class or the Chief Inspector. Permission of the Chief Inspector shall be obtained to discharge other female inmates for their proper rehabilitation. Any person who leaves the Home or Shelter without permission and does not come back within a week, will be discharged. Ordinarily an inmate should be discharged when the programme of counselling, assistance and training of inmates to enable them to live as a self reliant, respectful, honest and useful citizen is completed. An inmate may also be discharged as a disciplinary measure with the prior sanction of the Chief Inspector.
