The Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam on Tuesday welcomed the decision of a Delhi court to grant bail to former telecom minister A Raja, who was arrested 15 months ago in connection with the 2G spectrum scam.

"We welcome the court's verdict and are hopeful that he will come out and prove his innocence," DMK leader Tiruchi Siva said reacting to the court order.

Asked if Raja would attend Parliament or do party work, Siva said that he will take part in activities as per conditions laid by the court for his bail.

Siva said that some DMK leaders may visit the jail at the time of the release of the former telecom minister.

Raja was granted bail by a Delhi court in the 2G spectrum case on a personal bond of Rs 20 lakh and two sureties of like amount.
