Order No.

01.

1. This matter is taken up through virtual mode.

2. Heard Mr. S. Mohanty, learned counsel for the Petitioner and Mr. P. Tripathy, learned Addl. Standing Counsel for the State.

3. Considering the fact that the contraband allegedly seized from the possession of the Petitioner is more than commercial quantity for which the bar under Section 37 of the NDPS Act applies, I am not inclined to allow the prayer for bail, which is, therefore, rejected.
