PP opposed the petition contending that looking to the prosecution material, there is a prima facie case made out by the prosecution. The materials seized in the presence of two independent witnesses which goes to show that it is more than a commercial quantity. Therefore, as per Section 37 of the NDPS Act, the petitioner is not entitled to be granted with bail. It is also his submission that the seizure mahazar taken in the presence of panch witnesses also goes to show that alleged Ganja has been seized from the possession of the petitioner herein who was holding two white gunny bags. He also made the submission that matter is still under investigation. Hence at this stage, petitioner is not entitled to be granted with bail. 7. I have perused the grounds urged in the bail petition and the remand application copy, so also the objection statement filed by the learned Spl. PP to the said application. 8. Looking to the contents of the remand application and other prosecution materials, there is no specific averments by the prosecution that immediately after the receipt of the credible information about the travelling of the person in the train possessing the ganja entered into SHD and in the absence of making a mention about it in the station house diary, it can be said that there is no fulfillment of section 42(i) of the NDPS Act. As ruled by the Hon'ble Apex Court, the purpose of fulfillment of the requirement of the mandatory provisions is considered to be a relevant fact which can be taken into consideration by the courts of law even while considering the bail petitions. 9. As ruled by the Hon'ble Apex Court, the purpose of fulfillment of the requirement of the mandatory provisions is considered to be a relevant fact which can be taken into consideration by the courts of law even while considering the bail petitions. 9. Apart from that, so far as quantity of the Ganja and that it is said to be the Cannabis is concerned, no test report is produced by the prosecution so as to quality test as well as quantity test. Therefore, in the absence of such materials at this stage, only on the basis of the say made by the complainant and other officials of the said Department, it is difficult for the court to come to the conclusion that weight of the cannabis is 21.8 KG and it is a Ganja material. The non-production of the two test reports quantity test and quality test is also not in accordance with the standing instructions issued by the Central Government fixing the timeframe for production of the said test reports. 10.
