Bail Matters

The Indian Constitution gives utmost importance to Personal liberty recognized under Article 21. Deprivation of personal liberty must be based on the most serious and solid considerations relevant to objectives of the society welfare as specified in the Indian Constitution. although the law of the land and Hon’ble Higher courts in various cases have tried to intervene and even have laid down certain guidelines to be followed but unfortunately nothing concrete has been done about it. There is also a powerful need felt for an entire review of the bail system keeping in mind the socio-economic condition of most of our population. While granting bail the court must also check out the socio-economic plight of the accused and must even have a compassionate attitude towards them. A proper scrutiny could also be done to see whether the accused has his roots within the community Which May deter him from fleeing from the court.
