India is surveyed from a "transit" country in the drug smuggling route to its current position as an indigenous producer of the drug with underground distribution network.
Abstract

Finally, a scrutiny is made of Indian legislation enacted and of the line of action recommended in the Comprehensive Multidisciplinary Outline of Future Activities in Drug Abuse Control adopted in Vienna in 1987. 2 tables, 4 references.
