Considering that one year period from the last punishment had not elapsed and the fact by now the daughter's exam which were to start on 18th January, 2018 are over besides the son's admission and special leave petition can also be filed from the jail itself, this court finds no ground to set aside the communication dated 24th January, 2018 or grant of parole to the petitioner.
