    Summary The Jharkhand High Court rejected Shankar Yadav's bail application in a NDPS Act case involving 50kg of poppy straw (commercial quantity). The court found the serious nature of allegations and commercial quantity recovery precluded bail absent material establishing the petitioner's innocence or that he would not reoffend—mandatory conditions under Section 37 of the NDPS Act that cannot be relaxed merely on grounds of prolonged custody. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
