After having considered the rival submissions and taking into consideration the nature and gravity of the offences as alleged against the petitioner vis-à-vis p. 2 the allegation sought to be brought against him and regard being had to the recovery and seizure of 75Kgs 600Grams of Contraband Ganja, which is more than the commercial quantity allegedly from the vehicle in occupation of the petitioner and his consequent failure to satisfy the conditions of Section 37 of NDPS Act, which is sine qua non for grant of bail to an accused for commission of an offence under NDPS Act involving commercial quantity, this Court is not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner. 5. Hence, the bail application of the petitioner stands rejected. Accordingly, the BLAPL stands disposed of. (G. Satapathy) Judge Subhasmita Designation: Sr. Stenographer
