Hon'ble Ram Krishna Gautam,J.
Heard learned counsel for the applicant; learned A.G.A. for the State; and perused the record.
The present bail application has been filed by the applicant in case crime No. 0044 of 2019, under Sections 147, 332, 353, 386, 324, 504, 427, 506 I.P.C., Police Station Tindwari, District Banda with the prayer to enlarge him on bail.
The submission of the learned counsel for the applicant is that the incident did not occur in the manner alleged and the applicant has also sustained injuries. It has been submitted that the applicant is innocent with no previous criminal history; he is in jail since 02.04.2019 and, in case he is enlarged on bail, he will not misuse the liberty of bail. Co-accused Varun Yadav with same degree of accusation has already been enlarged on bail by a coordinate Bench of this court vide order dated 27.5.2019 passed in Criminal Misc. Bail Application No. 22153 of 2019. Hence bail has been prayed for.
Learned A.G.A. as well as counsel for informant has opposed the prayer for grant of bail to the applicant, but could not point out anything material to the contrary.
Considering the facts and circumstances of the case as also the submissions made, without commenting upon merits of the case, I am of the opinion that the applicant is entitled to be released on bail.

(iii) The applicant shall remain present before the trial court on each date fixed, either personally or through his counsel. In case of his absence, without sufficient cause, the trial court may proceed against him under Section 229-A of the Indian Penal Code.
(iv) In case, the applicant misuses the liberty of bail during trial and in order to secure his presence, proclamation under Section 82 Cr.P.C. is issued and the applicant fails to appear before the court on the date fixed in such proclamation, then, the trial court shall initiate proceedings against him, in accordance with law, under Section 174-A of the Indian Penal Code.
