He then submits that there is political rivalry between the uncle of petitioner and the informant and in view of that altercation took place.

He also submits that the petitioner has got no criminal antecedent as disclosed in paragraph No.16 of the petition. 4. Learned counsel appearing for the State opposed the prayer and submits that allegations are there of assault and pursuant to that injury has been received by the informant. 5. Annexure-2 is a document which suggests that father of this petitioner has left for his heavenly abode in the year 2017, however, he has also been made accused in the FIR. It has been pointed out that entire family members have been made accused due to political rivalry between uncle of the petitioner and the informant and for that the altercation took place and two of the co-accused persons have been granted anticipatory bail by this Court in the aforesaid ABAs and the petitioner has got no criminal antecedent as disclosed in paragraph No.16 of the petition. 6. In the attending facts and circumstances of this case, I am inclined to provide anticipatory bail to the petitioner. 7.
