BSF cracks illegal cattle smuggling
Last week, NDTV had travelled to Dhubri in Lower Assam to find out the magnitude of the illegal cattle smuggling trade and found the trade is controlled by an unbelievably well-organised mafia. It also came to light that the volume of the trade was between Rs 30-40 thousand crore. After the impact of the NDTV story, the BSF, which is responsible for intercepting the smuggling racket, has seized 459 cattle valued at Rs 77.93 lakh.
