Two days after being granted conditional bail by the Orissa High Court in the Rose Valley chit fund scam, Trinamool Congress MP Sudip Bandyopadhyay was on Sunday discharged from a private hospital here.

The MP will undergo further treatment in Kolkata, hospital sources said.

Bandyopadhyay was granted conditional bail on health grounds on May 19 after he spent four-and-half months in jail for alleged involvement in the scam.

The High Court had asked him to furnish a bail bond of Rs 25 lakh and surrender his passport.

During his treatment at the Apollo Hospital here, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee visited him during her visit to Odisha last month.

The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) had arrested the TMC lawmaker from Kolkata on January 3.

Another TMC MP Tapas Pal was also arrested by the CBI in the scam.
