JUDGMENT : Sameer Jain, J. 1. The instant bail application has been filed under Section 483 BNSS on behalf of accused-applicant. The accused-applicant was arrested in connection with FIR No. 124/2025 dated 25.02.2025 registered at Police Station Kho Nagoriyan, District Jaipur City (East) for the offence(s) under Sections 8 & 21 of NDPS Act . 2. Learned counsel for the accused-applicant has submitted that the accused-applicant is the sole bread earner of the family who is aged approximately 40 years. It is further submitted that charge-sheet has been filed in the instant matter. Further, it is submitted that the quantity which is recovered from the accused-applicant is 605 grams. 3. Per contra, learned Public Prosecutor has vehemently opposed the bail application. 4. Heard and considered. 5. Considering the arguments advanced by the learned counsel for the parties, and taking note of the fact that the accused- applicant is aged approximately 40 years; that he is the sole bread earner of the family; that charge-sheet has already been filed in the instant matter; that the quantity of the contraband recovered from the accused-applicant is 605 grams which is less than the prescribed quantity, therefore looking to the overall facts and circumstances of the case and material on record but without commenting on merits/demerits of the case, this court is inclined to allow the bail application of the accused-applicant and enlarge him on bail. 6. Accordingly, the bail application under Section 483 of B.N.S.S. is allowed and it is ordered that accused-applicant Shivsingh Meena S/o Shri Roopsingh Meena shall be enlarged on bail provided he furnishes a personal bond of Rs.50,000/- with two sureties of Rs.25,000/- each to the satisfaction of learned trial Judge for his appearance before the court concerned on all the dates of hearing as and when called upon to do so. Furthermore, taking note of the criminal antecedents registered against the accused-applicant, as an extended interpretation of the provisions of 'community service' as enshrined under the Bhartiya Nayay Sanhita, and as a reformative approach to re-include the accused- applicant back in the society with a better vision, aim and zeal in life, this court deems it fit to impose an ancillary condition upon the applicant, therefore, it is directed that the accused-applicant shall contribute to the Swach Bharat Abhiyan – initiative of the government, for a period of two months from the date of enlarging on bail, on two hours per day basis, as an honorary work, under the supervision and directions of the SHO qua the FIR (Supra) in consonance with the directions of the Municipal Corporation/Local Administrative authorities concerned.
