          family members when they were returning from yagya, in the

          husband and father-in-law with iron rod causing head injury to

          both of them and also assaulted her brother-in-law. It is further

          her by tearing her cloths.

                      4. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the

          nature of injury which is said to have been received or sustained

          by the informant does not corroborate allegations made in the

          First Information Report, the petitioner is said to be student and

          preparing for competitive examination and counsel for the

          petitioner undertakes that he will take all precautions not to get

          himself indulge in such activities in future and the prosecution

          may be put at liberty that in case such allegations are levelled

          against him in future, the same shall be examined and on finding

          substance they would be at liberty to seek cancellation of the

          privilege of anticipatory bail granted to this petitioner.

                      5. Learned APP for the State opposes the prayer for

          anticipatory bail application.

                       6. Considering the aforesaid facts and circumstances,

          accordingly, this Court is inclined to grant the privilege of

          anticipatory bail to the petitioner.
