+ ? This fact is not disputed that the case of premature release of a life convict is governed by the policy of the Government prevailing on the date of judgment of conviction and not by the policy which existed on the date of consideration of his premature release. It is brought to the notice of the Court by the learned counsel for the State that the Chandigarh Administration vide gazette notification dated 02.04.1997 had adopted the Punjab Jail Manual, 1996 for the purpose of considering premature release of prisoners. Undisputedly, at the time of conviction of petitioner i.e.14.12.2000 the prevailing policy for pre-mature release of convicts was Premature Release Policy dated 08.07.1991.

as per Clause (II) of the said policy, the overall conduct of the life convict during his confinement in jail with specific emphasis on his/her conduct for the last five years from the date of his/her eligibility for consideration of pre-mature release is to be seen and the convict has not punished for any jail offence during the last five years.
