The Madhya Pradesh High Court granted bail to a man accused of shouting a pro-Pakistan slogan and directed him to salute the national flag at a Bhopal police station 21 times and raise ‘Bharat Mata ki Jai’ slogan twice a month till the end of the trial. Justice DK Paliwal, in the order on Tuesday, said the applicant may be released on bail by imposing some conditions which may enthuse in him a sense of responsibility and pride for the country in which he was born and living. “He is openly shouting slogans against the country in which he was born and brought up,” the HC stated.
