Justice Indermeet Kaur stayed the trial court's order which had on October 31 allowed conduct of the test on the 63-year-old top Maoist leader.
The court passed the order after Ghandy's counsel Rebecca M John submitted that until and unless Constitutional validity of narco test is decided by the Supreme Court, an accused cannot be forced to undergo such a test.
She submitted that the Supreme Court has been consistently denying such a test on accused in view of the pending case before it in which a Constitution bench has reserved its order.
The High Court also issued notice to the police and directed it to file a status report by December 14.
