PER COURT :

2.           In continuation of the order dated 17.08.2026, passed by

this Court the applicant has filed an undertaking of the applicant dated

19.08.2026 in this Court. The same is taken on record and marked as

“X” for the purpose of identification.



3.          The perusal of the undertaking shows that the applicant has

stated in paragraph No. 1 that he shall not indulge, directly or indirectly,

in any of the activities which have been alleged against him in the

present Crime No. 84 of 2026 and more particularly the applicant had

not participated in, facilitated, assisted or caused any unauthorized

supply, transportation or installation of any statute without obtaining

any prior requisite permission of the Competent Authority as may be
                                      2                         92ba1624.26



required under law.        He has also undertaken not to supply or make

available any statute merely on request or demand made by any personal

group, organization, association of village body or any other entity unless

any person or body concerned first produces the requisite written

permission /sanction of the Competent Authority for installation of such

statute.



4.               He further undertakes that he shall not offer personally or

through     any      organisation,   office,   office-bearer,   member,       agent,

representative, associate or any other person acting at his instance,

participate in, assist, finance, facilitate or otherwise contribute to any

unauthorized installation of a statute at the public place or on

Government Premises, Educational Institution, Road and Open Space or

on any other place.



5.               He also has undertaken to abide by all the assurances and

every condition that may be imposed by this Court while granting bail.



6.               The purpose of undertaking filed by the applicant also taking

into consideration that for the offences the punishment provided is

maximum sentence of 5 years of rigorous imprisonment, therefore, I am

inclined to allow the present application. Hence the following order :

threaten, induce or influence the informant or any

of a similar nature while on bail.
