Non-applicant(s) For Applicant : None For Non-applicant/State : Mr. Amit Verma, Panel Lawyer. Hon'ble Shri Ramesh Sinha , Chief Justice Order on Board 23.09.2025 1. This is an office reference. 2. This Court, vide order dated 13.03.2024 passed in MCRC No. 1718 of 2024, while rejecting the bail to the applicant, namely, Dip Singh Gurjar, had expressed its trust that the trial Court would make an earnest endeavor to conclude the trial expeditiously in accordance with law, preferably within a period of six months from the date of passing of the order, if there was no legal impediment. 3. Earlier on one occasion also, this Court had granted extension of KUNAL DEWANGAN Digitally signed by KUNAL DEWANGAN 2 time for compliance of the order dated 13.03.2024. 4. The learned Special Judge (NDPS Act), Saraipali District- Mahasamund (C.G.) vide his request letter dated 01.08.2025 has requested for grant of three months time for concluding the trial. 5. It transpires from perusal of the PUD, that after the appearance of the remaining two witnesses, the evidence will be recorded and the statement of the accused will be taken. In the event of the accused producing evidence in their defence, the proceedings are likely to take some more time. Therefore, it is not possible to conclude the trial within the time prescribed by this Court. Hence, he prays for grant of three months time for concluding the trial. 6. The request appears to be reasonable. The concerned trial Court is directed to conclude the trial as early as possible, preferably within a further period of three months from today. 7. Accordingly, this CRMP stands disposed off with the aforesaid direction. 8. Registry is directed to send a certified copy of this order to the trial Court concerned for necessary information and compliance. Sd/- (Ramesh Sinha) Chief Justice Kunal
