[37. Offences to be cognizable and non-bailable.–
(1) Notwithstanding anything contained in the Code of
Criminal Procedure, 1973 (2 of 1974),–
(a) every offence punishable under this Act shall be
cognizable;
(b) no person accused of an offence punishable
for1[offences under section 19 or section 24 or section
27A and also for offences involving commercial quantity]
shall be released on bail or on his own bond unless–
(i) the Public Prosecutor has been given an opportunity to
oppose the application for such release, and
(ii) where the Public Prosecutor opposes the application,
the court is satisfied that there are reasonable grounds for

“14. This apart, it is noticed that the High Court, in passing the impugned
order of bail, had lost sight of Section 37 of the NDPS Act, which, inter alia,
provides that no person accused of an offence involving commercial

quantity shall be released on bail unless the twin conditions laid down
therein are satisfied, namely, (i) the public prosecutor has been given an
opportunity to oppose the bail application; and (ii) the court is satisfied that
there are reasonable grounds for believing that he is not guilty of such an
offence and that he is not likely to commit any such offence while on bail.
15. For the sake of convenience Section 37(1) is reproduced hereinbelow:–
“37. Offences to be cognizable and nonbailable.-
(1) Notwithstanding anything contained in the Criminal Procedure
Code, 1973 (2 of 1974)-
(a) every offence punishable under this Act shall be cognizable;
(b) no person accused of an offence punishable for 2[offences under
section 19 or section 24 or section 27A and also for offences involving
commercial quantity] shall be released on bail or on his own bond
unless-
(i) the Public Prosecutor has been given an opportunity to oppose the
application for such release, and
(ii) where the Public Prosecutor opposes the application, the court is
satisfied that there are reasonable grounds for believing that he is not
guilty of such offence and that he is not likely to commit any offence
while on bail.”
16. In view of the above provisions, it is implicit that no person accused of an
offence involving trade in commercial quantity of narcotics is liable to be released
on bail unless the court is satisfied that there are reasonable grounds for
believing that he is not guilty of such an offence and that he is not likely to commit
any offence while on bail.”

14. As rightly submitted by the appellant State, this Court, in
Lalrintluanga Sailo (Supra) while setting aside the bail granted by
the High Court therein had held that consideration on the twin
conditions under Section 37 of the NDPS Act is essential by the
concerned Court. It was observed:
10. Thus, the provisions under Section 37(1)(b)(ii) of the
NDPS Act and the decisions referred supra revealing the
consistent view of this Court that while considering the
application for bail made by an accused involved in an offence
under the NDPS Act a liberal approach ignoring the mandate
under Section 37 of the NDPS Act is impermissible. Recording
a finding mandated under Section 37 of the NDPS Act, which
is sine qua non for granting bail to an accused under the NDPS
Act cannot be avoided while passing orders on such
applications.”
15. To the similar effect, this Court in State by the Inspector of
Police v. B. Ramu reiterated that satisfaction with the conditions
laid down under Section 37 of the NDPS Act is mandatory while
entertaining a prayer for bail involving commercial quantity of
narcotic drugs. [See also: Ajay Kumar Singh alias Pappu (Supra)]
16. In similar circumstances, this Court in Union of India v.

[2026:RJ-JP:30135] (11 of 14) [CRLMB-13692/2025]
Namdeo Ashruba Nakade observed that the mandatory nature of
Section 37 cannot be dispensed with:
“12. Prima facie this Court is of the opinion that the
Respondent-accused is involved in drug trafficking in an
organized manner. Consequently, no case for dispensing
with mandatory requirement of Section 37 of the NDPS
Act is made out in the present matter.
13. Moreover, this Court is of the view that as the
accused has been charged with offences punishable with
ten to twenty years rigorous imprisonment, it cannot be
said that the Respondent has been incarcerated for an
unreasonably long time.”
17. Keeping in view the above expositions of law, we now
proceed to examine the impugned order. The abovementioned
decisions of this Court display the consistent view that when it comes to
cases involving commercial quantity of narcotics, the mandatory
requirements of Section 37 ought to be considered. It is
not in dispute that the case at hand, involves commercial quantity. In
such a scenario, consideration and reference to the twin conditions
enumerated under Section 37 of the NDPS Act was
mandatory. Upon a bare perusal of the impugned order, it is evident
that there has been no consideration at all by the High Court on the
twin conditions. In such a scenario, the impugned order cannot be
sustained in the eyes of law.
