On January 7, 2025, Amritsar Police dismantled a significant drug trafficking cartel with links to Rajasthan. The police arrested four individuals, including a woman, who were involved in smuggling narcotics from Pakistan into India.
The group had established communication with smugglers based in Pakistan and was distributing illegal substances in various parts of Rajasthan.
Authorities have intensified efforts to track down the remaining members of the network and are working closely with their counterparts in Rajasthan to break up the smuggling routes.
The bust not only highlights the regional connectivity of illegal drug trade but also stresses the importance of inter-state cooperation in combating organized crime. This operation is seen as a major success in the fight against cross-border narcotic trafficking in India.
