Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MP Ravi Kishan on Monday raised the issue of drug trafficking in Bollywood, during the Lok Sabha session. He appealed to the Centre to thwart any attempts of drug smuggling from Pakistan and China via Punjab and Nepal. "Problem of drug trafficking/addiction is on a rise. Conspiracy is being hatched to destroy country's youth and our neighbouring countries are contributing to it. Smuggling of drugs from Pakistan and China is done every year. It is brought via Punjab and Nepal," the actor-politician said on the first day of the Monsoon Session of Parliament.
"This is prevalent even in our film industry. Many people are being nabbed...NCB is doing very good work. I appeal Centre to take strong action, nab culprits, punish them...and thwart attempts by neighbouring nations," the BJP MP said.
