Varavara Rao gets 6-month bail on medical grounds

Varavara Rao

Mumbai, February 22

The Bombay High Court on Monday granted interim bail for six months on medical grounds to ailing poet and activist Varavara Rao, an accused in the Elgar Parishad-Maoist links case.

The court said it could not be a “mute spectator” and permit 82-year-old Rao’s health condition to deteriorate in custody. — PTI
