Delhi court rules convicts should get furlough regardless of having a local address.

The Delhi High Court ruled that convicts without a permanent Delhi address should not be denied furlough, emphasizing furlough's role as a reward for good behavior and a sign of reformation. The court stressed a need for a compassionate approach, noting that denying furlough based on address would undermine its purpose. It also clarified that prior parole or furlough isn't required for early release recommendations.
