Answer given by the minister

MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF FINANCE
(SHRI SANTOSH KUMAR GANGWAR)


(a) & (b): Quantum of drugs seized during the last three years, State/UT-wise is enclosed as Annexure. Details of recent narcotics drug racket in Hyderabad is not available as city-wise data is not maintained. However, quantum of drugs seized in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana is provided in Annexure.

(c) Since drug trafficking is a clandestine activity, the value of seized drugs depends upon the origin, destination, purity, amount of risk factor etc. Therefore, the exact value of seized drugs cannot be quantified.

(d) Persons arrested in drug trafficking are prosecuted under various provisions provided in Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, 1985.

(e) A number of steps have been taken by the Government to curb smuggling of narcotic drugs in the country. As a part of legislative measures, the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, 1985 has been enacted, which provides for stringent penalties for illicit trafficking of narcotic drugs and psychotropic substances. A number of agencies of both Central and State Governments have been empowered to enforce the provisions of the Act. To reduce supply of drugs, these enforcement agencies have adopted various measures, interalia, including, (i) intensive preventive and interdiction efforts along the known drug routes, (ii) strict surveillance and enforcement at entry/exit points of the border, (iii) strengthening of the intelligence system, and (iv) bilateral/multilateral cooperation with other countries for sharing of information on illicit trafficking.
