Madan Lal And Anr vs State Of Himachal Pradesh on 19 August, 2003

The word 'conscious' means awareness about a particular fact. It is the state of mind, which is deliberate or intended. The possession Crl. Appeal No.956-SB of 2000 8 need not be physical possession, but can be constructive, having power and control over the article, while the person whom physical possession is given holds it subject to that power or control. The accused was in exclusive knowledge and possession of the bags, containing poppy-husk. Keeping in view the principle of law, laid down, in the aforesaid case, the provisions of Sections 54 and 35 of the Act, and the evidence produced, on record, the trial Court, in my opinion, was right in coming to the conclusion, that the accused was in conscious possession of the bags, containing poppy-husk. In this view of the matter, the submission of the Counsel for the appellant, being without merit, must fail, and the same stands rejected.
