ill-effects of illicit trade, smuggling, and counterfeiting, said a
senior official on Wednesday.
The state police is taking
significant actions to curtail the problem of illicit trade, which
poses serious hazards to public health and safety, Haryana Police

for Police Officers on Prevention of Counterfeiting and Smuggling',
organised by FICCI's Committee Against Smuggling and Counterfeiting

officers on the magnitude of the problem but also helps them to
understand the intricacies of smuggling and counterfeiting.
