¶16

there was neither any demand by the petitioner nor there was any recovery of money at the instance of the petitioner. Counsel also submits that the petitioner is in custody since 16.04.2026 and after investigation, charge-sheet has already been submitted. Counsel further submits that the trial will take its own time to conclude, therefore, indulgence of bail be granted to the petitioner.

¶17

Per contra , learned Public Prosecutor opposed the prayer made by counsel for the petitioner and submitted that in the telephonic conversation with the co-accused Dinesh Kumar, the factum of acceptance of bribe by the petitioner has been established. Hence, under these circumstances, the petitioner does not deserve any indulgence of bail.

¶18

Heard and considered the submissions made at the Bar and perused the material available on record. 5. Considering the arguments put forward by learned counsel for the petitioner and looking to the fact that the petitioner is in custody since 16.04.2026 and after investigation, charge-sheet has been submitted and the trial will take its own time to conclude, hence, without expressing any opinion on merits and demerits of the case, this Court deems it just and appropriate to grant indulgence of bail to the petitioner under Section 483 BNSS. 6. Accordingly, the instant bail application under Section 483 BNSS is allowed and it is ordered that the accused-petitioner Ms. Kajal Meena S/o Shri Kamar Singh Meena, arrested in connection with aforementioned FIR, may be released on bail; provided she furnishes a personal bond of Rs.50,000/- with two surety bonds of Rs.25,000/- each to the satisfaction of the learned
