3. Admittedly, the petitioner was taken into custody on 01.08.2025, but in the meantime, charge sheet has already been submitted and there are 14 charge sheeted witnesses and, therefore, the trial would take some more time, however, the trial is yet to commence, even after submission of charge sheet in this case. Further, Mr. S.C. Pradhan, learned Addl. PP on being asked clarifies that the petitioner is not having any criminal antecedents of similar nature. In view of the aforesaid facts and circumstances and taking into account the materials so placed on record, the petitioner would be considered to have satisfied the conditions of Section 37 of NDPS Act.
4. For the reasons stated hereinabove and taking into account the custody period of the petitioner and grant of bail to co-accused Ramesh Majhi in BLAPL No. 5088 of 2026, this Court without expressing any view on merit, admits the petitioner to bail.
5. Hence, the bail application of the Petitioner stands allowed and the Petitioner is allowed to go on bail on furnishing bail bonds of Rs.1,00,000/- (Rupees One Lakh) only with two solvent sureties each for the like amount to the satisfaction of the learned Court in seisin of the case on such terms and conditions as deem fit and proper by it with following condition:-
