NIA opposes bail for jailed MP Rashid Engineer to attend Parliament, citing terror funding case.

The National Investigation Agency (NIA) has opposed Jammu and Kashmir MP Rashid Engineer's plea for interim bail to attend the Parliament's Budget session. Engineer, who is in Tihar Jail since 2019 on terror funding charges, seeks temporary release. The NIA argues that interim bail should be granted sparingly and claims Engineer's case does not meet the criteria. The Delhi High Court has scheduled a hearing for February 6.
