The former Uttar Pradesh minister is likely to undergo a lie detector test, Central Bureau of Investigation sources said.
The victim's sister has alleged that Madhumita was involved in a relationship with Minister of State for Stamps Amarmani Tripathi.
Tripathy's lawyer Rakesh Thapliyal said the court allowed the accused, who is lodged in a jail in Dehra Dun, to leave for Lucknow in the custody of a CBI officer and complete oath taking formalities by June 16 and return the next day.
The defence plea that the accused could be given bail owing to his illness was not tenable, the court said.
"Tripathi has saved Uttar Pradesh. He has helped in saving the country," Mulayam Singh Yadav said of the accused in the Madhumita Shukla murder case.
Asked whether he will join the BJP, he said, "Why not? Whatever Maharaj ji tells me, I will do."
Delhi's power circles can expect a surprise when a not-so-known officer is appointed to head the CBI.
'Get lost from here, you scoundrel. Nobody in this administration will help you,' the CM shouted at me.
