Learned counsel further submits that the conclusion of trial is likely to take a long time and no useful purpose would be served by keeping the applicant behind bars till disposal of the case.

¶19

Per contra , learned Public Prosecutor has vehemently opposed the instant bail application. It is submitted that there are strong criminal antecedents registered against the accusedapplicant.

¶20

Having heard the arguments advanced by the learned counsel for the parties and taking note of the fact that accusedapplicant is a young man aged about 33 years; that the applicant is sole bread earner of the family; that the charge-sheet has already been filed; that the recovered quantity of the contraband is much less than the commercial quantity and 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/her on bail.

¶21

Accordingly, the instant bail application under Section 483 BNSS is allowed and it is ordered that accused-applicant Ramlakhan Alias Papli S/o Shri Hari 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.

¶22

Considering the strong criminal antecedents registered against the accused-applicant, this court deems it fit to direct the accused-applicant shall contribute to the Swach Bharat Abhiyan – initiative of the government, for a period of two months, on two
