This is the first bail application filed under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 for grant of regular bail to the applicant who has

been arrested in connection with Crime No.282 of 2020, registered at Outpost Rajgamar, Police Station - Balco, District - Korba, Chhattisgarh for the

offence punishable under Section 20(b) of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, 1985.

Learned counsel for the applicant submits that the applicant is in jail since 16.6.2020 and has been falsely implicated in this case. After completion
