Abstract
The paper argues that the study of the drug trafficking route along
India's west coast has increased. Subsequently, the use of shipping containers
for drug trafficking has emerged as a new danger. Alternatively, Indian society
is heavily involved in the illegal cultivation, manufacturing, and trafficking
of drugs, as well as the diversion of legal opium, originators, and narcotics.
These are the activities that raise illicit drug money. In this study, the
loopholes of the NDPS Act have been thoroughly studied. What is more, some of
the heroin produced illegally in India is a diverted product. Even though
opium poppy farming is still illegal in India. Despite the fact that the bulk
of raids involve minor amounts of narcotics for which no monetary probe or
asset forfeiture is conceivable, It is also important to highlight that India
is the only country in the world where narcotics are made, smuggled in and out
of the nation, traded in the local market, and redirected for illicit substance
business and trafficking. There is no proper law to address this issue, and the
loopholes in the NDPS Act are used for drug trafficking.
