ORDER : ABHILASHA KUMARI, J. 1. Rule. Mr. Ronak Raval, learned Additional Public Prosecutor, waives service of notice of Rule for the respondents. 2. This application dated 03.07.2017, has been preferred by the applicant, through Jail, with a prayer to enlarge him on temporary bail for a period of thirty days in order to enable him to carry out agricultural activities on his land, the details of which are to be found in the copies of Village Form Nos. 7 and 12 annexed with the application. 3. The applicant is undergoing life imprisonment in connection with the offence punishable under Section 302 of the Indian Penal Code, 1860. 4. We have perused the averments made in the application as well as the Jail record pertaining to the applicant, which indicates that his conduct in Jail is good. 5. However, we notice from the revenue record annexed with the application that there are several co-owners of the land in question including the male members, who can carry out agricultural activities on the said land. 6. Besides, we notice that the applicant has recently been released on furlough with effect from 30.05.2017 to 12.06.2017, for a period of fourteen days. 7. As the presence of the applicant in order to cultivate the land does not appear to be necessary, we are not inclined to grant the prayer made in the application. 8. Hence, the application stands rejected. Rule is discharged.
