Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Friday (May 15, 2026) called for a unified global effort in the war against drugs and stressed the need for a unified legal framework to deal with the menace. He said the battle against drugs must rise above geopolitical differences and individual national interests. The world must fight narco networks and narco-terror states, the Minister said, adding that the world will have to adopt uniform laws for a common definition of prohibited substances, standardised punishments for drug trafficking, extradition of drug kingpins, and intelligence sharing.
