Learned Counsel appearing for the State opposes the prayer for bail.

Having considered the statements of the witnesses and the seizure memorandum show recovery of narcotic substance from the possession of the petitioner i.e. 25 kgs. of Ganja which is above commercial quantity and in view of statutory restrictions under Section 37 of the N.D.P.S. Act, we are not inclined to grant bail to the petitioners.

The application for bail is, thus, rejected. Trial court is directed to expedite the trial and conclude the same at an early date preferably within six months from the

next date fixed for recording of evidence before the trial court without granting unnecessary adjournment to either of the parties.
