Is it illegal to buy or sell bhang in kerala? Is it necessary to get a
30-May-2024 (In Criminal Law)
No, bhang is not legally permitted in Kerala. While the NDPS Act, 1985 (Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act) doesn't explicitly ban bhang, which is made from cannabis leaves, it gives states the authority to regulate its use. States like Uttar Pradesh and Rajasthan allow bhang, often for religious or cultural reasons. But Kerala does not have any legal provisions allowing its sale or consumption, including bhang goli (bhang-infused edible tablets). So, even though it might seem like a grey area under national law, in Kerala, it's treated as illegal and buying or consuming it can get you in trouble.
