Let X_0 be a compact connected Riemann surface of genus g with D_0\subset X_0 an ordered subset of cardinality n, and let E_G be a holomorphic principal G-bundle on X_0, where G is a complex reductive affine algebraic group, that admits a logarithmic connection \nabla_0 with polar divisor D_0. Let (\cal{E}_G, \nabla) be the universal isomonodromic deformation of (E_G,\nabla_0) over the universal Teichm\"uller curve (\cal{X}, \cal{D})\rightarrow {Teich}_{g,n}, where {Teich}_{g,n} is the Teichm\"uller space for genus g Riemann surfaces with n-marked points. We prove the following: Assume that g>1 and n= 0. Then there is a closed complex analytic subset \cal{Y} \subset {Teich}_{(g,n)}, of codimension at least \(g\), such that for any t\in {Teich}_{(g,n)} \setminus \mathcal{Y}, the principal G-bundle \cal{E}_G\vert_{{\cal X}_t} is semistable, where {\cal X}_t is the compact Riemann surface over \(t\). Assume that g>0, and if g= 1, then n >0. Also, assume that the monodromy representation for \nabla_0 does not factor through some proper parabolic subgroup of G. Then there is a closed complex analytic subset \(\cal{Y}' \subset {Teich}_{(g,n)}, of codimension at least g, such that for any t\in {Teich}_{(g,n)} \setminus \cal{Y}', the principal G-bundle \)\cal{E}_G\vert_{{\cal X}_t}$ is semistable. Assume that g>1. Assume that the monodromy representation for \nabla_0 does not factor through some proper parabolic subgroup of G. Then there is a closed complex analytic subset \cal{Y}" \subset {Teich}_{(g,n)}, of codimension at least g-1, such that for any t\in {Teich}_{(g,n)} \setminus \cal{Y}', the principal G-bundle \cal{E}_G\vert_{{\cal X}_t} is stable.
