Ram Rahim’s 17th Parole: BJP MP Faces Tough Questions Over Repeated Releases
In a sharp NDTV exchange, BJP MP Dharambir Singh was questioned over Dera Sacha Sauda chief Gurmeet Ram Rahim's 17th temporary release since his conviction. Asked why a rape convict has been repeatedly allowed out of prison, Singh cited the existing jail manual and judicial framework, saying the government cannot act beyond the law. He acknowledged that the rules could be changed if the country wants them amended, while facing questions over whether the government should at least record its dissent when such releases are considered.
