It has been submitted on behalf of the petitioner that the petitioner is in custody since 30.10.2025. Petitioner bears no criminal antecedent, as per disclosure made in paragraph No. 3 of the bail application.

5.

It has been further submitted by the petitioner's counsel that petitioner has been falsely implicated in the present case. Parties are villagers. There is delay of one day in lodging the FIR. The present case is the counter version of Complaint Case No. 309 of 2025 filed by one Ripu devi, who is wife of coaccused, Ranjit Singh against the informant and others. Injury of the injured is found to be grievous in nature caused by hard and blunt object, which further falsifies the allegation of assault by means of Gadasa, a sharp edge weapon.

6.

Learned A.P.P. for the State has vehemently opposed the prayer for grant of bail to the petitioner. 7.

Considering the aforesaid facts and circumstances of the case, period of custody of the petitioner and there being case and counter case between the parties, this Court is inclined to grant bail to the petitioner.
