WIRE — A Jharkhand man's seven-year jail sentence for possessing 11 kg of suspected ganja has been overturned. The high court ruled that the seized substance was bhang, which is not classified as a prohibited narcotic under the NDPS Act. The court emphasized that bhang, unlike ganja and charas, is excluded from the Act's definition of cannabis, making its possession not an offense. The conviction was deemed illegal.
