Heard learned A.P.P. and the learned counsel for the informant. They have opposed the prayer for bail stating that she is still ready to live with him and the husband was called for before the learned Additional Sessions Judge while considering the allegation for anticipatory bail but he refused to keep her. . Having heard both sides and in view of the facts and circumstances, as stated above, I am not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner, rather let the petitioner surrender before the learned court below within a period of six weeks from the date of order and make prayer for regular bail, which will be considered by the learned court below on its own merit.

With the aforesaid observation, this application is dismissed.
