Cellular Jail is located at Port Blair in the Territory of Andaman and Nicobar Islands, India. It was constructed by British Government during 1896 to 1906.

The jail, once served as a colonial prison and was also known as Kaala Paani or “Black Water” Jail. The jail was called Kaala Paani because the entire prison was surrounded by sea and there was no way a prisoner could escape.

Cellular Jail was especially used by the British to exile political prisoners to the remote archipelago during the struggle for Indian Independence.

Many notable freedom fighters of the great Indian Freedom Movement, such as Batukeshwar Dutt and the renowned Veer Savarkar, and numerous others, were kept as prisoners here.

It was taken over by Japanese troops in 1942 during WWII, and in a surprise turn, saw many British troops as inmates.
