came to be dismissed by order dated 21.3.2014. It is seen
that the petitioner was released on parole on 22.7.2014 for a period of 30 days. Thus, it is seen that parole was granted to the petitioner within four months of his appeal for furlough being dismissed. During the period that the petitioner was on parole, he had an opportunity to meet his family members and take care of them. Moreover, when the petitioner was released on parole on 22.7.2014, he did not report back to the prison in time and he overstayed the parole by 61 days. In view of these facts, we are not inclined to interfere, hence, Rule is discharged.
