ASFAQ vs THE STATE OF RAJASTHAN

The Supreme Court addressed the issue of parole for a convict under the Terrorist and Disruptive Activities (Prevention) Act, 1987 (TADA). The Court held that the Advisory Committee's rejection of the appellant's parole application was valid as per the Rajasthan Prisoners Release on Parole Rule, 1958, which disallows parole for TADA prisoners. The Court upheld the decisions of the lower courts and the Ministry of Home Affairs, affirming that the appellant's repeated applications for parole were rightly denied based on existing legal provisions.
