Jailed Dera Sacha Sauda chief Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh has been granted a 30-day parole, officials said on Tuesday.
Ram Rahim will stay at his Sirsa-headquartered Dera during the parole period, said Dera spokesperson and advocate Jitender Khurana.
The Dera chief, who is serving a 20-year jail term for raping two of his disciples, is currently lodged in the Sunaria jail in Haryana's Rohtak.
This is the latest in a series of paroles granted to him. It comes months after he was granted a similar parole in January.
The Dera Sacha Sauda was sentenced to 20 years in prison in 2017 after being convicted of raping two of his women disciples.
