the purpose of bail is to secure the attendance of the accused at trial.but the present day crime scenario calls for granting of bail for other pupose as well. a miscreant commits crime, gets bail and the trial may last upto several years. at present an utp is provided with education by NGOs in correctional homes and some convicts are acquiring even higher degrees of learning. if at the time of granting bail the accused is given condition to restart his career as most criminals are found to be drop outs and pursue any course at any open univ. would it tantamount to any violation of any right?

Mr. Tapan u ve raised quite a larger issue.
this aspect may not apply in all cases.
could be good for juvenile matters but not for common offendors or mature offendors.
moreover bail is not acquittal so i dont belive this thought can be applied in normal trials.
bail is temporary and not an admission of guilt.
