With the election commission giving its permission, Sirsa-based Dera Sacha Sauda chief Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh, who is serving a 20-year imprisonment in Haryana's Rohtak district jail for the rape of two of his women disciples and a lifer in a case of murder of a journalist, is all set to be out on a 20-day parole ahead of the October 5 state assembly election.
