Maharashtra lawmaker couple, MP Navneet Rana and MLA Ravi Rana, will continue to remain in jail on Wednesday as their release orders could not be obtained from the magistrate's court on time. The couple was granted bail by a special court earlier in the day.
Their team will obtain release orders on Thursday morning from the court and then move to Byculla and Taloja prisons for their release. The independent MP-MLA couple were arrested for giving a call to chant the Hanuman Chalisa outside chief minister Uddhav Thackeray's private residence.

She received treatment at the orthopedic department on an OPD basis at the state-run JJ Hospital. “After evaluation and treatment, she left the JJ hospital around 5.30 pm today,” an official of the hospital was quoted as saying.
The couple was arrested on April 23 by the Mumbai police under various provisions of the Indian Penal Code, including sedition and 'promoting enmity between groups', even after they dropped their plan to recite the Hanuman Chalisa outside the chief minister's residence.
