1. Heard learned counsel for the applicant and learned A.G.A. for the State.
2. The present petition under Section 482 Cr.P.C. has been filed with a prayer to allow the petitioner to submit a personal bond and two sureties in 19 (nineteen) cases which should be sufficient in all the cases in which the petitioner has been granted bail.
3. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that it is impossible for the petitioner to submit separate sureties in each cases in which he has been granted bail.
4. The petitioner has been granted bail in all the aforesaid cases. Despite the trial Court granting him bail, the petitioner is still in jail inasmuch as the petitioner being a poor person is unable to produce the sureties in each cases.

7. In view of the above, the impugned order is modified to the extent that the applicant shall execute a personal bond for Rs.1,00,000/- and the same bond shall hold good for all 19 cases.
