Secured parole 3 times in 7 months

Ram Rahim, convicted of raping two women disciples at his ashram in Sirsa, was also on parole for 40 days in October 2022. Notably, the Dera sect chief was granted parole ahead of the Haryana panchayat election and Adampur Assembly bypoll.

After Singh was out of jail in October last year, several politicians, including Haryana Deputy Speaker Ranbir Gangwa, Karnal Mayor Renu Bala Gupta and Deputy Mayor Naveen Kumar and Senior Deputy Mayor Rajesh Aggi visited the Dera sect chief to seek his blessings. 

He was also able to secure a month-long parole in June 2022.
