Learned Additional Standing Counsel for the State accepts notice. 3.

By this petition, the petitioner seeks parole to find out a suitable match for his younger sister and to arrange funds for the same. Petitioner also challenges the communication dated 8th March, 2018 rejecting his application for parole on the ground as noted above. As per the nominal roll, petitioner was awarded a jail punishment on 5th January, 2018 after he was found with approximately 400 gms of tobacco packed in 24 small packets. This was the ground for rejection of the parole. Further while the W.P.(CRL) 1334/2018

Since after the application seeking parole was filed, the petitioner has already been released on furlough, this Court find no ground to set aside the order dated 8th March, 2018 or pass any order in favour of the petitioner granting parole.
