Ashok, whose father was imprisoned for murder in 2007, eagerly awaited his father’s release after 17 years. On Wednesday, the Telangana government released 213 convicts, including Ashok’s father, Venkanna, due to good conduct. Ashok plans to show his father a transformed Hyderabad before he returns to Warangal. The release, which included both male and female inmates, saw many families reunite.
