circumstances of the case and the fact that the recovered
contraband is below commercial quantity, without expressing any
opinion on merits/demerits of the case, this Court is inclined to
enlarge the petitioner on bail.

is allowed. It is ordered that the accused-petitioner Gurpreet
Singh @ Gaurav S/o Hardeep Singh arrested in connection
with F.I.R. No.0196/2024 registered at Police Station
