1. Heard Sri Rajiv Dwivedi, learned counsel for the applicant and Sri Rajeev Dhar Dwivedi, learned AGA for the State. 2. The instant bail application has been filed seeking release of the applicant on bail in Case Crime No. 23 of 2025, under Sections 105 B.N.S., Police Station Meja, District Prayagraj during pendency of the trial. 3. Learned counsel for the applicant submits, on the basis of false allegation applicant has been made accused in the present matter. He further submits, admittedly deceased died due to electrocution, therefore, applicant cannot be held liable for his death. 4. He further submits, along with applicant his son Bhupendra Patel @ Pahadi was also made accused but he has been released on bail by this Court and his bail order has been annexed at page-69 of the paper-book and on facts, case of applicant is at par with him. 5. He further submits, applicant is not having any criminal history and in the present matter he is in jail since 11.01.2025. 6. Per contra, learned AGA opposed the prayer for bail but could not dispute the argument on facts advanced by learned counsel for the applicant. 7. I have heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the record of the case. 8. Considering the argument advanced by learned counsel for the applicant and the fact that similarly placed co-accused Bhupendra Patel @ Pahadi has been released on bail by this Court and applicant is not having any criminal history and in the present matter he is in jail since 11.01.2025, in my view, applicant is
entitled to be released on bail. 9. Accordingly, without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, the instant bail application is allowed. 10. Let the applicant - Ramesh Chandra be released on bail in the aforesaid case on furnishing a personal bond and two sureties each in the like amount to the satisfaction of the court concerned with the following conditions:- (i) The applicant shall appear before the trial court on the dates fixed, unless his personal presence is exempted.

In case of breach of any of the above condition, the prosecution will be at liberty to move an application before this Court for cancellation of the bail of the applicant. 12.
