STC NEWS MONITORING DESK
NEW DELHI, JANUARY 24 (STC): Custody parole has been granted to jailed Lok Sabha MP Engineer Rashid to attend the upcoming Budget Session of Parliament, reports Press Trust of India (PTI).
Additional Sessions Judge Prashant Sharma passed the order, granting Rashid permission to attend the session that would begin on January 28, subject to conditions imposed earlier about travel costs and others, report said.
Notably, in November last year, the court had granted Rashid custody parole to attend the Winter Session of Parliament on all dates. It had also allowed him to attend the Monsoon Session between July 24 and August 4, 2025, in a similar manner.
In 2024, Rashid was granted interim bail to campaign for the Jammu and Kashmir Assembly polls.
