Rajasthan High Court today granted interim bail till November 6 to former Rajasthan minister Babulal Nagar, who was in jail for allegedly raping a married woman.
The bail was granted as Nagar's daughter is getting married on November 3.
Nagar (53) has been accused of raping the woman at his residence on September 11 last year on the pretext of giving her a government job.
Nagar resigned from the Cabinet two days after the FIR was registered against him on September 17.
