1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE FOR RAJASTHAN AT JAIPUR BENCH, JAIPUR ORDER D.B. Civil Writ (Parole) Petition No.307/2009 (Lalit Kumar Versus State of Rajasthan) Date of Order :: 15th January, 2009 PRESENT HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE NARENDRA KUMAR JAIN HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE GUMAN SINGH By post Mr. B.K. Sharma, Deputy Government Counsel for the State of Rajasthan Heard learned counsel for the State. 2. The convict-petitioner has preferred this writ petition for grant of first parole of 20 days. He was convicted under the provisions of N.D.P.S. Act to 10 years rigorous imprisonment. A notice to show cause was given and in response thereof, the respondents have filed their reply to writ petition, wherein this fact has been admitted that petitioner has completed more than 1/4th of his sentence of imprisonment awarded by the trial court, but an objection has been raised that conduct of petitioner during his custody in jail was not satisfactory. A specific objection has been taken that petitioner remained absent from Jail work-shop from 7th August, 2003 and he was punished with jail penalty. In these circumstances, one of the requirement regarding 2 satisfactory conduct in jail, as required under Rule 9 of the Rajasthan Prisoners (Release on Parole) Rules, 1958, is not proved in the present case and in these circumstances, the present application for grant of parole is not maintainable. Even otherwise, we are not satisfied to allow the present application on merits also. Consequently the writ petition is dismissed. (GUMAN SINGH), J. (NARENDRA KUMAR JAIN),J. DK
