The members proposed a peaceful protest, scheduled to be held on 23 July 2026, and sought permission to organise procession in support of the students and show solidarity with the students who were protesting for their demands at Jantar Mantar at New Delhi. A representation was made to ACP Zone 4 which was sent to the police station concerned from where the procession was to proceed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">But instead of granting permission, the members were detained under Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-9001803873\" target=\"_blank\">170<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-9001804327\" target=\"_blank\">BNSS<\/a> with a condition of release, the condition being that apart from the bail bonds and surety, a government servant must also furnish the bail of the detenus, to be released on bail, mentioned in the order passed by ACP dated 23 July 2026.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The ACP&#8217;s original order dated 23 July 2026 had required the detenus to furnish a surety of &#8377;1,00,000 and a bond of &#8377;1,00,000 each (&#8377;2,00,000 in total), in addition to the government-servant condition, failing which they would be sent to jail.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The respondents contended that there is no case for interference by the Court as the petitioner has other remedy against the order passed under Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-9001803873\" target=\"_blank\">170<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-9001804327\" target=\"_blank\">BNSS<\/a> and that it was the discretion of the ACP to pass the order and the conditions were imposed taking into account the previous conduct of the detenus in the year 2024, wherein they tried to disturb peace by violent protests. Thus, the detenus were asked to furnish the bail bond under Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-9001803829\" target=\"_blank\">130<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-9001804327\" target=\"_blank\">BNSS<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Analysis<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court opined that although the detenus were directed to be released upon providing a bail bond, the requirement in the said order for a government servant to furnish the bond is something that the detenu will likely be unable to meet, as no government servant, concerned about their job, would be likely to provide bail bonds for the detenus. Therefore, such condition imposed upon the detenus amounts to denial of bail.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court referred to the judgment in <a href=\"http:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink\/L41Giyyw\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"font-style: italic;\">Yashik Jindal<\/span> v. <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">Union of India<\/span>, 2023 SCC OnLine SC 417<\/a>, stating that the grant of bail subject to onerous conditions, is ordinarily done in exceptional circumstances and cannot be done as a matter of course.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court observed that the petition was in the nature of habeas corpus, but since the detenus were detained with an onerous condition imposed by the impugned order, the Court allowed the petition with a direction that the detenus be released on bail upon furnishing a personal bond in the sum of &#8377;50,000 each with one solvent surety each, with an amount to the satisfaction of the trial court\/authority concerned for their regular appearance before the said Court\/authority concerned during trial, with a condition that they shall remain present before the Court concerned during trial and shall also abide by the conditions enumerated under Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001519737\" target=\"_blank\">437(3)<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002726935\" target=\"_blank\">Criminal Procedure Code, 1973<\/a>. This reduced the total financial burden by half from the ACP&#8217;s original order and removed the government-servant requirement entirely.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">Therefore, the Court did not relegate them to take course of other remedy available to them.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">[<span style=\"font-weight: bold; color: #632423;\"><span style=\"font-style: italic;\">Ranjeet Jat<\/span> v. <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">State of M.P.<\/span>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-9003748388\" target=\"_blank\">2026 SCC OnLine MP 23344<\/a>, decided on 24-7-2026<\/span>]<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%; text-indent: 18pt; border: 2px solid black; border-radius: 10px; text-align: center; width: 50%; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; background-color: #DCDCDC;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #000080;\">*Judgment authored by: Justice Subodh Abhyankar<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<p>Advocates who appeared in this case:<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-left: 18pt;\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">For Petitioner:<\/span> Jayesh Gurnani<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-left: 18pt;\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">For Respondents:<\/span> Pradyumna Kibe<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p style=\"font-style: italic;\">The Court held that the onerous condition attached to release on bail that a government servant must furnish bail of the detenus, apart from the bail bond and surety, amounts to denial of bail, which is done in exceptional circumstances and not as a matter of course.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":67011,"featured_media":392433,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3,10],"tags":[108209,39784,111554,77292,111557,111555,34511,44007,67301,111548,7201,111552,111551,111553,111556,39622,89570,111547,45669,111550,109106,111549],"class_list":["post-392427","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-casebriefs","category-highcourts","tag-alok-awasthi-j","tag-bail-bond","tag-bail-bond-and-surety","tag-denial-of-bail","tag-detenus","tag-government-servant-to-furnish-bail","tag-grant-of-bail","tag-habeas-corpus-writ-petition","tag-j","tag-jantar-mantar-protests","tag-madhya-pradesh-high-court","tag-madhya-pradesh-society-registrikaran-adhiniyam-1973","tag-national-educated-youth-union-neyu","tag-onerous-condition-bail","tag-onerous-condition-release-on-bail","tag-peaceful-protest","tag-section-130-bnss","tag-section-170-bnss","tag-section-437-crpc","tag-students-protest-new-delhi","tag-subodh-abhyankar","tag-violent-protests"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v28.0 (Yoast SEO v28.0) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>MP HC: Onerous Bail Condition Amounts to Denial of Bail | SCC Times<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"The MP High Court says that grant of bail subject to onerous condition such as government servant shall furnish the bail along with bail bond and surety, amounts to denial of bail.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/blog\/post\/2026\/08\/05\/mp-high-court-onerous-bail-condition-amounts-to-denial-of-bail\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"\u20b92 Lakh and a Government Servant&#039;s Signature?
