If he is absent appearing before the court, court will issue NBW to the accused. It can be recalled by showing the medical certificate. If NBW is executed he has apply for the fresh bail in the same court.

better go to hon'ble highcourt u/s-482 cr.p.c.

move an application under S.438 Cr.P.C because NDPS offence is a serious offence and courts are not lenient in such matters.

if the accused has skipped the date, better seek anticipatory bail and enclose the medical certificate with the application.

one clarification for Sarvesh (my dear friend)....in state of UP, S.438 was repealed by the state so there are no powers with Sessions court and HC to grant anticipatory bail under S.438 Cr.P.C

However, Allahabad HC exercises its powers under S.482 Cr.P.C to stay the arrest of the applicant.

for rest of the country the normal procedure under S.438 Cr.P.C will follow.

and one more thing, u mistakenly used the word BATTER, dear it has some different meaning...better use the word 'better'
