It is contended by learned counsel for the applicant that the applicant is innocent and has been falsely implicated in the present case. It is further contended that the alleged incident said to have taken place on 24.6.2019 whereas F.I.R. has been lodged on 7.12.2020 i.e. after a gap of about 1 year 6 months but there is no plausible explanation regarding this inordinate delay. It is further contended that as per medical report victim has not received any grievous injury. All injuries are simple in nature. It is next submitted that co-accused Satyapal @ Satpal @ Mintu and Rajpal Singh have been granted bail by this Court vide orders dated 27.7.2021 and 10.8.2021 passed in Criminal Misc. Bail Application Nos. 10321 of 2021 and 24226 of 2021 respectively, therefore, applicant is also entitled to be released on bail. It has been assured on behalf of the applicant that he is ready to cooperate with the process of law and shall faithfully make himself available before the court whenever required. The applicant has no criminal history and he is languishing in jail since 31.12.2020. He undertakes that he will not misuse the liberty, if granted, therefore, he may be released on bail.

On the other hand, learned A.G.A. opposes the application for bail.
