State of Haryana and others ..... Respondents CORAM : HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE DEEPAK SIBAL HON'BLE MS. JUSTICE LAPITA BANERJI Present :

Mr.Navdeep Singh, Advocate, for the petitioner. Mr.Randhir Singh, Addl.A.G., Haryana.

* * * * * DEEPAK SIBAL, J. (Oral) (1) At the outset, learned counsel for the petitioner submits that he restricts his prayer to the issuance of directions to respondent No.3-District Magistrate, Sonipat to finally dispose of the recommendations made by the Jail Authorities, District Jail, Karnal to respondent No.3 for grant of parole to the petitioner, as the same has been pending decision since 26.10.2024. (2) Learned State counsel has no objection to the acceptance of the afore alternate prayer made on behalf of the petitioner.

(3) After hearing learned counsel for the parties and going through the record, we find that the decision on the petitioner's request for grant of parole has been unnecessarily delayed by the State which is also against the spirit behind Section 12 of the Haryana Good Conduct Prisoners (Temporary Release) Act, 2022. (4) In the light of the above, we dispose of the instant petition with a direction to respondent No.3 to take a final decision on the petitioner's request made on 26.10.2024 for the grant of parole, within two weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order, in accordance with law.
