New Delhi, 28/4: The Supreme Court Friday granted bail to BJP leader Hardik Patel in a case lodged against him in connection with the violence during the Patidar stir in Gujarat in 2015 subject to his “diligent participation” in the investigation.
A bench of Justice A S Bopanna and Justice Hima Kohli made its earlier order granting protection to Patel absolute.
“This court had in February 2020 issued notice and had granted interim protection. Three-and-a-half years have passed since then. In these circumstances, we see no reason to alter the order at this juncture.
