HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT ALLAHABAD LUCKNOW CRIMINAL MISC. BAIL APPLICATION No. - 10270 of 2025 Court No. - 15 HON'BLE KARUNESH SINGH PAWAR, J. Heard learned counsel for the applicant, learned AGA for the State and perused the record. First Bail Application has been filed with regard to Case Crime No. 50/2024, under Sections 419/420/467/468/471/120B IPC and Section 3/9 of Uttar Pradesh Public Examination (Prevention of Unfair Means) Act, Police Station Kotwali Ayodhya, District - Ayodhya. In the prosecution case, it is alleged that the accused on the basis of forged certificates have appeared in the counseling of 2023 and have taken admission in the session 2023-24 in the College of Nursing in Rajarshi Dasharath Autonomous State Medical College Ayodhya. Learned counsel for the applicant submits that the applicant is a student. Role assigned to the applicant is similar to that of co-accused Sachin Rajvanshi who has been enlarged on bail by this Court vide order dated 01.08.2024. Offences are triable by magistrate. The applicant has no criminal antecedents. The applicant is languishing in jail since 01.09.2025. Learned counsel for the applicant submits that another co-accused Viresh Mishra has been enlarged on bail by this Court vide order dated 02.04.2025 passed in criminal misc. bail application No. 2625 of 2025. Learned counsel for the applicant seeks parity with the order of the co-accused. Versus Counsel for Applicant(s) : Ravi Krishna Counsel for Opposite Party(s) : G.A. Jitendra Kumar Yadav .....Applicant(s) State Of U.P. Thru. Prin. Secy. Home Govt. Of U.P. Lko. .....Opposite Party(s) It is further submitted that there is no possibility of the applicant of fleeing away after being released from jail or tampering with the witnesses. In case the applicant is enlarged on bail, he shall not misuse the liberty of bail. Learned A.G.A. opposed the prayer for bail but could not dispute the aforesaid facts as argued by the learned counsel for the applicant. On due consideration to the order of co-accused Sachin Rajvanshi and Viresh Mishra, so also the fact that offences are triable by magistrate, coupled with the fact that the applicant is languishing in jail since 01.09.2025 without having any criminal history and without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, I find it to be a fit case for enlarging the applicant on bail on the ground of parity. Accordingly, the bail application is allowed on the ground of parity. Let applicant Jitendra Kumar Yadav involved in aforesaid case crime be released on bail on his furnishing a personal bond and two sureties each in the like amount to the satisfaction of the court concerned with the following conditions which are being imposed in the interest of justice:- (i) The applicant shall file an undertaking to the effect that he/she shall not seek any adjournment on the dates fixed for evidence when the witnesses are present in court. In case of default of this condition, it shall be open for the trial court to treat it as abuse of liberty of bail and pass orders in accordance with law. (ii) The applicant shall remain present before the trial court on each date fixed, either personally or through his counsel. In case of his absence, without sufficient cause, the trial court may proceed against him/her under Section 229-A of the Indian Penal Code. (iii) In case, the applicant misuses the liberty of bail during trial and in order to secure his/her presence proclamation under Section 82 Cr.P.C. is issued and the applicant fails to appear before the court on the date fixed in such proclamation, then, the trial court shall initiate proceedings against him/her, in accordance with law, under Section 174-A of the Indian Penal Code. (iv) The applicant shall remain present, in person, before the trial court on BAIL No. 10270 of 2025 2 the dates fixed for (i) opening of the case, (ii) framing of charge and (iii) recording of statement under Section 313 Cr.P.C. If in the opinion of the trial court, absence of the applicant is deliberate or without sufficient cause, then it shall be open for the trial court to treat such default as abuse of liberty of bail and proceed against him/her in accordance with law.
