This decision is taken in the year 2012 by the Supreme Court of India and life imprisonment is not limited it can extend upto 25 years. Culprits cannot claim regarding their release from the prison and neither their family or friends. Constitution of India mentioned rules and regulations regarding life imprisonment

  1. Life imprisonment is 14, 20 or 25 years. 
  2. It can extend upto whole life. 
  3. Life imprisonment can go till the end of life. 
  4. After the life imprisonment culprit has to face all the circumstances in the jail.
  5. They cannot claim about their release. 
  6. Life imprisonment cannot be pardon. 

This is a very serious misconception about 14 years of life imprisonment in India. Because life imprisonment is not limited to 14 years. It can extend as much as the action of the prisoner.
