The petitioner preferred appeal against the said order which has been rejected by the State Government. 2. The learned Advocate for the petitioner states that the petitioner is a student of F.Y.B.Com and thus it is necessary for him to attend the college. He further submits that the examinations are to commence from 2.11.1998. He is also said to be 20 years of age. Considering all facts and circumstances of the case, in my view, ends of justice would meet if the order of externment for two years is substituted by asking the petitioner to furnish a personal bond for maintaining peace in the above mentioned areas. 3. In view of the aforesaid, this Special Criminal Application is partly allowed and the impugned order of externment dated 19.6.1998 is modified to the extent that instead of externment of two years from the area of Surat City and the contiguous districts of Surat (Rural), Bharuch, Navsari and Valsad, the petitioner will furnish a personal bond in the sum of Rs.10,000/- and a surety in bond in the like amount for maintaining peace in the above areas for a period of two years. Rule is partly made absolute to the aforesaid extent. .... msp.
