India Promises to Demolish Phensidyl Factories near Border

[integra]

As long as there is market for crap, crap will be produced and sold. BDs love crap. Thats why we sell craps to you.

Well you can't produce anything remotely usable I guess, I haven't heard anyone buy anything Indian may be some commodities like onions but nothing else. And now we are seeing phensydile which are bought down in border areas so try to produce something usable. Anyways before you bombered me with automobiles and stuffs let me say we buy them from east asia.

Those BDs high on Phensidyl called. They begged to differ.

Firstly you should realize that these "medicines" are not legally exported, rather smuggled. And secondly, people who are using this for their addiction are not unfortunate, but opportunist. In a country where alcohol is banned, people will want to lay their hands on cheap hallucinatory drugs. BD should try to prevent the illegal smuggling across the borders first and the Indian govt should try to bring the people involved on our side of the border into justice.... some manufacturers are clearly indulged in profiteering from this thriving smuggling market across the border.

Its not that BGB is sleeping but the problem is its impossible to capture every little smugglers . Even though BGB has been equipped with M16 assault riffles we don't practice shoot on sight philosophy . Same can be said against BSF, why dont they try to stop this smugglers rather then shoot little girls?

Bangladeshis are addicted to Phensidyl and hence the India criminals smuggle them. It is not the other way round. You guys must regularize the alcohol sector to prevent them opting for such cheap and rather hilarious options like kids. India had and even now has the problem of illicit ilquor which has caused many deaths. One of the effective way it is being dealt with is by introducing cheap and safe government made alcohol.

Well thats quite a hypocrisy isn't it... you now complaining why don't BSF stop... and when they do try to stop, you complain why were they stop innocent people from crossing the border ... Hope you realize that when BSF takes an aggressive stance in cross border illegal activities. Drugs smuggling is a very serious issue and the action against it has to be serious and effective. Atleast BSF is stepping up to curb it, what has the BGB done so far in curbing smuggling?

what has the BGB done so far in curbing smuggling?

Lets say burned the smuggled items and threw the smugglers in Jail.

Actually its those junkies from BD who are begging us to sell them the elixir. We are merely obliging. Its funny though, how you think that people getting rich at your expense is a thing to brag about.

Jayron : Hold you horses. I'm surprised that every one is taking this issue on its face value.

First)Its not the legal phensydyl we get in INDIA. The phensedyl seized by the enforcement agencies on some agencies was found to be in Sachets and Litre Packs. Bottles seized were without Hologram. Neither, Sachets or Litre Packs, are made by the Indian Drug Manufacturer. Also Phensedyl is not sold in NE states of India, So obviously somebody is making spurious syrup and selling this off as Phensedyl. Or Drug smugglers from both the sides are involved.

Second)Smuggling or Drug Peddlers on both the sides of Border are involved in the trade.

Third)The Codeine content in the legal Phensedyl is within the prescribed level. Hence its sold over the counter as well.

You mean Major Sabbir Ahmed Bipu and Major Reza Shah Mohammad Zillullah have been convicted already?

Did you find any other Army personnel involved as well ?

Phensidyl is legal in India. How can the Indian Government close down factories which are not conducting illegal activities? They will go to Court and obtain a stay order. Yes, if there are factories which are run illegally without the proper licenses or the approvals, these can be raided and shut down. Knowing the way the manufacturers of spurious drugs and counterfeit drugs work, this is easier said than done. At the slightest whiff of danger, these factories vanish and the raids when they are carried out reveal nothing incriminating. Subsequently, the factories pop up in other locations and the process repeats itself. If you shut down one factory, another opens in its place.

India itself is facing a serious menace of counterfeit and spurious drugs. I am not sure how much we can help BD. As long as the demand exists, supply will find a way. The problem can be minimised if the demand is controlled. This is not merely a law and order issue, there are strong market forces at work.

Bangladeshi members blaming the Government of India for this problem is akin to the Americans blaming the Colombian or the Mexican governments for not stopping the drugs flowing into the USA without taking any active measures to check the trans border traffic themselves. We know how active the US govt is, but despite the efforts of law enforcement agencies on all sides, the drugs still continue to flow.

Thats quite a statement for a person whose Government officially called up on Indian Companies to setup factories in Bangladesh. Or of a country whose 15% import come from India. Or of a citizen of a country whose only fame to exports is Garments.

Lets say it hasn't been effective then... isn't it?

Lets say it hasn't been effective then... isn't it?

Lets say less hostility and a bit more diplomacy?

India has a big problem with manufacturing of illegal spurious drugs, and govt is combating it. Blaming GoI for addiction in BD is like blaming bangladesh govt for prostitution in India.

Yes, you do your bit, and we do ours. The ones which manufacture drugs for sole purpose of selling them in BD should go. Nobody can argue against that. But will that be sufficient without proper border control, I am not sure.
