'India New Power': 4 More European Nations Back Permanent Seat Bid, But China Hurdles Remains

Four European countries have backed Indias permanent UNSC membership. It sounds like a major breakthrough. It is an important diplomatic signal. But it is not the finish line. Hungary, Poland, Slovakia and the Czech Republic have joined a growing list of countries calling for India to be at the top table of global security. The larger question is whether the existing powers will actually share power. China is the only P5 member that has not explicitly endorsed Indias candidacy. It also holds a veto over any UN Charter reform. India faces another challenge: whether a new permanent seat would come with the same veto rights as the old five. New Delhi says permanent membership without equal powers only creates a second tier. Watch this report for the V4 endorsement, the China problem, the veto battle and why Indias UNSC campaign is really about who writes the rules of the future.

Amit Shah says govt will collectively succeed in uprooting drug trade from India by 2029

New Delhi, Sep 22: Union Home Minister and Minister of Cooperation Amit Shah today inaugurated the 3rd National Conference of Anti-Narcotics Task Force (ANTF) Heads of States/UTs in New Delhi. On this occasion, the Union Home Minister launched Television Commercials (TVCs) to spread awareness against narcotic substances and laid the foundation stone of new zonal complexes of the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) in Lucknow and Dehradun. During the event, the best-performing ANTF of States and UTs were also honoured. In addition, the Union Home Minister launched the newly designed website of the NCB. In the two-day conference organised by the NCB, ANTF heads from 36 States and Union Territories, along with representatives of concerned government departments and other stakeholders, are participating. In his address, Union Home Minister Amit Shah said that under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, we have for the past five years been taking one step after another in an effort to achieve the difficult goal of a drug free India. He said that the time has now come to deliver a decisive blow against narcotics, which have become the most serious threat to the country and the world, and to achieve victory through collective efforts. Shah said that by 31 December 2029, we will collectively succeed in uprooting the drug trade from India. Shah said that in the past five years we have achieved success against several challenges such as terrorism in Kashmir, insurgency in the Northeast and the problem of Naxalism. The Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) with the cooperation of all the states, we have ended these major problems that have confronted the country for decades. He said that the fight against drugs is the most difficult of all battles, but we cannot abandon this fight. Shah said that to build a Viksit Bharat by 2047, to save future generations and to connect the youth with Indias development, the only option before us is to make India drug-free. We will have to fight this problem unitedly and with passion, and we must achieve victory. Union Home Minister said that the Vision Document 2026-2029 is like the Gita for all those involved in this fight. This Vision Document has been prepared with great effort after discussions with more than 35 departments. He said that we have prepared the complete roadmap after taking suggestions from all stakeholders, and it has been given to everyone with definite targets. Targets and timelines have also been fixed in it. The Home Minister said that it will also be reviewed after some time. Shah added that the MHA or the NCB cannot do all this alone. We all have to fight this battle with top priority and complete dedication, and we have to win it as well. Shah said that it should be our shared responsibility and resolve to end this menace of drugs that is hollowing out future generations. Our resolve should be that we will not allow even one gram of drugs to enter the country from anywhere in the world, nor will even one gram of drugs go from our country to the world. He said that we have prepared this roadmap with a resolve for the welfare of youth across the world. Shah said that we will have to work for a drug-free India with sensitivity, with an understanding of its importance, and as the topmost priority. He said Meet once the parents and siblings of even one young person afflicted by drugs. Until you meet them, intensity in this fight cannot arise in you. A weeping, wailing mother, a younger sister, and a boy who ranked in the top 10 in the Class 10 board examination is slowly moving towards death, while his helpless parents watch. There can be no greater sorrow than this for anyone, and for us too it is a national loss. A talented child who was going to contribute to Indias development in the days to come - his life is ending midway. There can be no greater loss than this for us and for the country. Union Home Minister said that we have to fight the battle against drugs with clarity. He said that the focal points of this fight have already been identified, and a roadmap has also been prepared at the state level to take intelligence, investigation, financial action and prosecution in one direction. Shah said that in the first ANTF conference we had created an institutional mechanism and strengthened it. In the second ANTF conference, we discussed capability, action and execution in order to convert that mechanism into action. Today, the third ANTF conference will convert this roadmap into a decisive battle. Shah said that whatever we have done so far is not enough. Until the Principal of every school, the Patwari of the village, the PSI of the police station, the Director General of Police and the Chief Secretary of the state, and even the Home Secretary of the Government of India, work in one direction, we will not achieve success. He said that todays conference is the most important because this time we will move forward towards complete victory by fixing Target, Timeline and Accountability. Union Home Minister said that we now have to move from Meeting to Mission, from Reporting to Result, from Seizure to the dismantling of Networks, and from Case to Conviction. He said that until all departments of the state governments and the Government of India engage in this work, we cannot move forward. Shah said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has set the target of building a Viksit Bharat by August 15, 2047 before the 140 crore citizens of the country, when India will be at the forefront globally in every sector. He said that if we are to achieve this goal, we cannot do so with a youth power and future generation hollowed out by addiction. He stated that India is the youngest country in the world, which is why the threat is also the largest for us in the global context. This is our necessity because the health, skills, labour, and thinking capacity of the youth alone can lead the country to that goal, and drugs damage all four of these capacities. Union Home Minister said that for emerging challenges such as synthetic drugs, diversion of precursor chemicals, new communication technologies, dark-net, drug markets, crypto, dead-drop delivery systems, and international drug networks, a team of officers who think 'out-of-the-box' should be constituted in every state, and success should be shared and implemented across the entire nation. Shah stated that the Vision Document 20262029 rests on four pillars: Enforcement, intelligence & operations, Control of precursor & synthetic drugs, Demand & harm reduction, and Capacity building & coordination. Over 100 targets have been categorized across these four pillars. Under the target of registering 1 lakh Nashamukt Mitras outlined in the Vision Document, various ministries have registered 46,780 Nashamukt Mitras so far, and they are already operational. To take this campaign to the grassroots level, Nashamukt Mitras will visit 10 lakh schools, colleges, and institutions across the country in the coming days to caution the youth and sensitize campus directors. Shah said that today we are discussing converting the roadmap into results, and the most crucial element of the brainstorming taking place over these two days is compassion. Our goal should be to transform the ANTF into an Anti-Narco Mission Command, and State Chief Secretaries will need to adopt a different approach regarding manpower, technology, budget, and other resources. The Home Minister added that the Government of India is emphasizing technology and forensics in capacity building. Union Home Minister and Minister of Cooperation stated that instead of maintaining a seizure-centric approach, we must move forward with the objective of dismantling entire networks. Our priority, along with backward-forward investigation, must also include financial investigation and tracing digital links. Our strike must hit the funds earned by drug dealers. Shah said that cartels must be targeted at three levels: the entry point, the inter-state distribution system, and the local sales networks within districts. Further, districts will be categorized into three clusters: those where drugs are manufactured or enter the country, those serving as transportation corridors, and those where consumption takes place. Union Home Minister stated that we must increase the utilization of PITNDPS, as there is a strong need for it in the country. A complete roadmap from investigation to conviction must be formulated in coordination with public prosecutors. A dedicated campaign must be launched to deport foreign accused present in India and blacklist them so they can never re-enter the country. Moreover, the fugitives who are supplying drugs to the country from abroad should be caught and brought before the Indian courts. By targeting borders and production centres, all loopholes must be plugged. Every ANTF should integrate the entire process of converting information to actionable intelligence into the work culture of their respective state police force. The Home Minister expressed confidence that we will succeed in this fight against drugs and emerge victorious. Participation in this national conference will assist states, departments, and agencies under the 'Whole of Government Approach' to move forward with renewed resolve to effectively combat drug trafficking across the country over the next three years. The deliberations held during the conference will help strengthen the effective enforcement of drug control laws and make the strategies adopted to protect the country's youth from drugs more impactful. This national event will provide an effective platform to bolster a future-ready partnership between the NCB and ANTFs of States and Union Territories to tackle drug abuse and fulfil the pledge of a Nasha Mukt Bharat.

Drugs control body advises against indiscriminate use of painkillers, antibiotics

New Delhi, Sep 22: The Central Drugs Standard Control Organisation (CDSCO) has advised the public, healthcare professionals, pharmacists, retailers and hospitals against the indiscriminate use of painkillers and antibiotics, highlighting the associated risk of chronic kidney disease and other renal complications. In a circular dated September 21, the drug regulator called for rational, safe and responsible use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and antibiotics, besides strict adherence to prescription requirements and stronger antimicrobial stewardship. The circular issued by Drugs Controller General (India) Dr Rajeev Singh Raghuvanshi said that import, manufacture, sale and distribution of drugs are regulated under the Drugs and Cosmetics Act, 1940 and the rules framed under it. As per the said rules, all drugs including non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and antibiotics are required to be sold and distributed in the country on prescription of an RMP/specialist only, it said. The CDSCO said various drugs, including NSAIDs and antibiotics, have been placed under Schedules G, H, H1 and X of the Drugs Rules, 1945, considering their potential risks, and require appropriate medical supervision. Most of NSAIDs are included in the Schedule H of Drugs Rules, 1945. Thus, they are not to be sold by retail without the prescription of a Registered Medical Practitioner as is required in Rule 97 of Drugs Rules, 1945, the circular said. It added that most antibiotics are included in Schedule H1 and carry warnings that they are dangerous to take except in accordance with medical advice and should not be sold by retail without the prescription of a registered medical practitioner. In view of the above, it is mandatory to ensure that these drugs shall only be used when clinically indicated, in the appropriate dose and for the appropriate duration, and under the supervision of a Registered Medical Practitioner, it said. For the general public, the CDSCO advised that NSAIDs or painkillers and antibiotics should not be taken indiscriminately, repeatedly or for prolonged periods without medical advice. It also said antibiotics should not be used for self-medication or for conditions where antibiotic treatment is not clinically indicated, such as most uncomplicated viral infections. The regulator advised people to take prescribed antibiotics strictly as advised and not share them with others or use leftover medicines. Individuals, particularly those with pre-existing kidney disease or other risk factors for renal impairment, have been advised to inform their healthcare professionals before using NSAIDs. The public is advised to seek medical advice where pain, fever or other symptoms persist or recur rather than repeatedly using painkillers or antibiotics on their own, the circular said. For healthcare professionals, the CDSCO said NSAIDs and antibiotics should be prescribed only when clinically indicated, after considering the patient's clinical condition, age, comorbidities, concomitant medicines and relevant risk factors. It advised that he lowest effective dose for the shortest appropriate duration should be considered when prescribing NSAIDs, particularly for patients at increased risk of renal impairment. The circular also called for appropriate precautions in patients with renal impairment, dehydration, cardiovascular disease or other conditions that may increase the risks associated with NSAID use. On antibiotic use, it said these drugs should be prescribed judiciously and in accordance with applicable antimicrobial stewardship principles, taking into consideration the likely causative organism, site and severity of infection and, wherever appropriate, relevant microbiological investigations and local susceptibility patterns. Unnecessary combination therapy, inappropriate antibiotic selection, incorrect dosing and unnecessarily prolonged duration of antibiotic treatment should be avoided, it said. The CDSCO also directed pharmacists, retailers and distributors to strictly comply with statutory requirements relating to the sale and distribution of Schedule H, H1 and other prescription drugs. Schedule H/H1 drugs shall not be sold at retail except in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Drugs Rules, 1945, it said, adding that pharmacists and retailers should not encourage or facilitate self-medication with antibiotics or prescription-only NSAIDs. Hospitals and healthcare institutions have been advised to strengthen systems for rational prescribing and monitoring of NSAIDs and antibiotics and promote antimicrobial stewardship, prescription review and appropriate patient counselling. The Drugs Control Authorities in the states and Union Territories have also been asked to create awareness among healthcare professionals, pharmacists, retailers and the general public regarding the risks associated with indiscriminate use of NSAIDs and antibiotics, and ensure compliance with applicable provisions. In view of the above, all concerned are advised to take necessary steps to promote rational, safe and responsible use of NSAIDs and antibiotics, and to prevent avoidable adverse drug reactions, renal complications and antimicrobial resistance, the circular said.

Ensure no human trafficking victim is overlooked irrespective of gender: Centre to States, UTs

New Delhi, Sep 22: Asking the states and union territories to intensify enforcement against human trafficking, the Union Home Ministry has told authorities to ensure identification protocols followed by law enforcement agencies are broad enough to cover all genders and every industry vulnerable to exploitation. It also urged investigators to use Section 111 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita to pursue organised trafficking networks, including their financiers and kingpins, and said action should not be confined to lower-level participants. In an advisory on 'Countering Trafficking in Persons' issued to States and Union Territories, MHA's Women Safety Wing said the advanced legal architecture provided after the successful adoption of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023, Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 and Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam, 2023, augmented by digital tools, provides the precision required to dismantle networks of exploitation. It also warned that public servants could face criminal and departmental action for failing to follow prescribed procedures in trafficking cases. Under one of the guidelines on Universal Victim Identification and Protection Protocols, the Ministry specified that o ensure no victim is overlooked, identification protocols must be broad enough to cover all genders and every industry vulnerable to exploitation. Emphasising that labour trafficking in sectors such as brick kilns, stone quarries, and unregulated manufacturing often remains under-reported, the Ministry asked the States and UTs to include men and boys in identification protocols. States must conduct regular, unannounced inspections in these high-risk industries. Field personnel and labour inspectors must be specifically trained to identify victims of exploitation, including men and boys, who are often overlooked in traditional trafficking narratives, it said. The Ministry said state police and labour departments must leverage national databases such as CCTNS/Cri-MAC to map high-risk migration routes and trafficking hotspots. Underlining the guidelines for guidance and strict compliance, the Ministry said it is essential that the instructions contained in this advisory are effectively disseminated to all field-level officers, including those at the police station level. While the Union government has provided a comprehensive statutory and digital roadmap, the functional success of these reforms is dependent on the decisive leadership of States and Union Territories, and the efficiency and rigour with which these tools are used by them, it said. The Ministry called on state administrations to ensure that Anti-Human Trafficking Units are fully staffed and actively engaged in investigations rather than existing only on paper. It also warned that public servants could face criminal and departmental action for failing to follow prescribed procedures in trafficking cases. Under Section 199(c) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, a public servant who fails to record information relating to certain cognizable offences, including trafficking offences covered by Sections 143 and 144, can face at least six months in prison, up to two years, and a fine, it said. Action must not be limited to low-level actors but the law must be used to seize their assets and neutralise the kingpins and financiers who operate from the shadows, often in the guise of legitimate business, it said, It also directed authorities to seek the highest applicable penalties in trafficking cases, including life imprisonment in cases covered by the relevant provisions, particularly when minors or multiple victims are involved. The advisory emphasised digital evidence and said investigators must secure encrypted communications, financial transactions, and geolocation data. It says electronic records can be treated as primary evidence under the Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam, subject to its specified conditions. Searches and seizures connected with trafficking must be recorded through audio-video electronic means, while forensic evidence collection during rescue and raid operations is described as a statutory requirement under the new criminal procedure law.
