Will come out of jail soon, says Chautala

Kaithal, January 2

INLD supremo and former Chief Minister Om Parkash Chautala said here on Thursday that though he had completed his sentence, he was not being allowed to come out of jail under a conspiracy.

Chautala was addressing party workers at a marriage palace here. He said that convicts who are more than 60 years of age get relaxation in sentence, but he, despite attaining 85 years of age, has not been released. He said that the day was not far off when he would come out of jail and make efforts to fulfil the aspirations of Devi Lal. He asked workers to strive to strengthen the party to bring about a change in government.
