<h1>Engineer Rashid Seeks Custody Parole to Attend Parliament; NIA Opposes Citing Unlawful Activities Charges</h1> A jailed Member of Parliament from Jammu and Kashmir, referred to as Engineer Rashid, requested custody parole from a Delhi court to attend the upcoming Parliament session, asserting he poses no security threat. His lawyer argued that his attendance is a public duty, while the National Investigation Agency opposed, stating detention should not exempt him from legal consequences. Rashid has been in Tihar Jail since 2019 due to charges under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act related to a 2017 terror funding case. The court reserved its decision on his plea, with the Parliament session set to begin on March 10.
