One lakh each qua all the complainants. 5. Accordingly, the bail application under Section 483 BNSS is allowed and it is ordered that accused-applicant Jitendra Kumar Nath S/o Shri Shankarnath shall be enlarged on bail provided he furnishes a personal bond of Rs.50,000/- with two sureties of Rs.25,000/- each to the satisfaction of learned trial Judge for his appearance before the court concerned on all the dates of hearing as and when called upon to do so. 6.
