This interlocutory application has been filed under Section 483(10 (b) read with Section 528 of BNSS, praying for the cancelation/modification of the bail order dated 11.10.2018, passed in Bail Application Case No. 1898/2018 [Mustafa Ahmed Barbhuiya vs. The State of Assam]. 3. It is submitted by Mr. Laskar, learned counsel for the applicant, that the present applicant, along with other co-applicants, had filed connected bail application, which were accordingly allowed by the Co-Ordinate Bench vide its order dated 11.10.2018. He further submits that the applicant has been abiding by all the terms and conditions imposed upon him. However, as an advocate, the petitioner is facing difficulty in obtaining permission whenever, he has to visit other jurisdictional courts. At the same time, his wife runs a clothing business and has to travel to other states. Since she cannot go alone and they also have a minor child, the petitioner has to accompany her. He further submitted that while passing the bail order dated 11.10.2018, seven conditions were imposed in paragraph No. 34 (a) to (g) of the order. Accordingly, the present applicant has prayed for the modification of bail conditions 34 (b) and (e), which read as follows:
"(b). They shall remain present before the Court on the dates fixed for hearing of the case. If they want to remain absent, then they shall take prior permission of the court and in case of unavoidable circumstances for remaining absent, they shall immediately give intimation to the appropriate court that they may be permitted to be present
