    sections 20(b)(ii)(B)/21(C)/29 of the NDPS Act, 1985.

    The bail application has been preferred by the petitioner only on the

    issue relating to pregnancy of the petitioner who is at an advanced stage of

    pregnancy and the expected date of delivery has been fixed on 13.08.2026.

    2026:CHC-AS:1062
    Learned Senior Advocate appearing for the petitioner submits that the

    petitioner was arrested in connection with the instant case on 04.04.2026

    and since then she is in custody. Emphasis has been made only on the

    medical documents which have been enclosed and which do support the

    claim of the petitioner relating to the expected date of delivery. A report was

    called for from the NCB and such report was submitted on 07.07.2026

    which do support the contention of the petitioner. However, so far as the

    issue is concerned, it has been emphasized by the learned advocate

    appearing for the NCB that the petitioner is being examined at Gynecology

    and Maternity Outpatient Department (OPD), S.S.K.M. Hospital wherein

    there has been follow up visits from 08.05.2026 to 03.07.2026. There is no

    complaint regarding her health and she has been prescribed regular

    medication which is under the supervision of Alipore Correctional Home

    Hospital.
