Heard Sri Bharat Singh, learned counsel for the applicant, Sri Roshan Kumar Singh, learned A.G.A. for the State and perused the record. 2. Instant bail application has been filed with a prayer to release the applicant on bail during the trial in Case Crime No. 127 of 2026, under sections 85, 80(2), 352, 351(3) of B.N.S. & Section 3/4 of Dowry Prohibition Act, Police Station- Baniyather, District- Sambhal. 3. Contention of learned counsel for the applicant is that the applicant is Sister-in-law (Devrani) of the deceased, who committed suicide by hanging herself after a petty dispute over household issues. The applicant has been falsely implicated merely being sister-in-law (Devrani) of the deceased, though there is no sufficient material against her to show that she harassed the deceased for non- fulfillment of demand of dowry prior to death. The applicant has been falsely implicated by making general and vague allegations along with other family members. It is further submitted that for invoking presumption of dowry death in case of death under unnatural circumstances within 7 years of marriage, there must be sufficient material to show that the deceased was subjected to cruelty soon before the death, but there is no such material. It is lastly submitted that the applicant has no criminal history and being a lady, she is entitled to be released on bail in view of Section 480 BNSS. She is languishing in jail since 15.07.2026. In case, she is granted bail, she will not misuse the liberty of bail and would cooperate in the trial proceedings. Versus Counsel for Applicant(s) : Bharat Singh Counsel for Opposite Party(s) : G.A. Suman .....Applicant(s) State of U.P. .....Opposite Party(s) 4. In support of his contention, learned counsel for the applicant has also produced the photocopy of the charge sheet, wherein cognizance was taken by the CJM on 16.09.2026. 5. On checking the order of cognizance on e-court service App, this Court found that the order of cognizance was not uploaded on CIS portal. Though in pursuance of the order of this Court dated 20.04.2026 passed in Criminal Misc. Anticipatory Bail Application U/S 482 BNSS No.2329 of 2026 (Rajesh Yadav vs State of U.P and others), the CPC, High Court Allahabad has intimated to all the District Judges including the District Judge, Sambhal through his notification dated 07.05.2026 regarding directions for real time feeding of all business during criminal and civil proceeding as well as uploading all the orders from the stage of cognizance on the CIS portal. It is surprising that despite receiving the notification of CPC, High Court Allahabad, in pursuance of the order of this Court, for uploading all the orders on CIS portal, cognizance order has not been uploaded by the CJM concerned. It appears that either the District Judge, Sambhal has not communicated the Circular of CPC, High Court Allahabad to the CJM concerned or CJM concerned or his staff failed to take cognizance of the order passed by this Court in Criminal Misc. Anticipatory Bail Application U/S 482 BNSS No.2329 of 2026, which was duly intimated vide notification dated 07.05.2026 by the CPC, Allahabad High Court. 6. Therefore, The District Judge, Sambhal at Chandausi is directed to look into the issue and ensure the order of this Court, mentioned above, regarding uploading of all the orders on CIS portal, should be complied with in letter and spirit. 7. On the other hand, learned A.G.A. for the State opposed the prayer for bail but could not dispute the aforesaid facts. 8. Considering the entire facts and circumstances of the case, submissions of learned counsel for the parties and taking into account the fact that the applicant is lady (sister-in-law) and keeping in view the nature of offence, evidence, complicity of accused and taking into account overcrowded jails and heavy pendency of criminal cases before the trial courts as well as considering the mandate of the judgement of the Apex Court in the case of Kapil Wadhawan vs Central Bureau of Investigation reported in 2025 SCC Online SC 3038 as well as guideline of this Court in the case of Maya Tiwari vs BAIL No. 35180 of 2026 2 State of U.P. reported in 2024 SCC Online All 6765 regarding grant of bail and without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, I am of the opinion that the applicant is entitled to be enlarged on bail.
