<h1>Section 478: Bail Granted for Bailable Offenses; Indigent Individuals May Be Released on Bond; Violations Can Lead to Penalties</h1> Section 478 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023, outlines conditions for granting bail. It mandates that individuals arrested for bailable offenses, or appearing before a court, shall be released on bail if they are prepared to provide it. If the individual is indigent and cannot furnish surety, they may be discharged on executing a bond for appearance. Failure to provide bail within a week can indicate indigence. However, if a person violates bail conditions, the court may refuse further bail and impose penalties under section 491, without affecting related provisions in sections 135(3) or 492.
