Traditionally, drugs in Punjab come from the poppy fields of Afghanistan, cultivated under the patronage of Taliban for whom it is a big source of easy money. According to United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime, the total area under poppy cultivation in Afghanistan was estimated at 328,000 hectares in 2017, a 63% increase over the previous year. Potential opium production was estimated at 9,000 tons in 2017, an increase of 87% from 2016. A spike in production in Afghanistan obviously means supply to Punjab will not slacken even despite the crackdown on dealers and peddlers by the state government. There are reports of drugs reaching Punjab through alternative routes now, one so circuitous that it first reaches Africa and then comes to Delhi and Punjab. This route is worked by African smugglers who have bases in Delhi. Afghanistan, however, is not the only source of drugs in Punjab. Spurious and cheap drugs are also manufactured locally, many times in the garb of pharmaceutical factories.
