As per news report of NDTV, the minister asked revenue intelligence officers to engage more with their international counterparts to charge 'big handlers' working behind the scene, and ensure that smugglers do not outsmart authorities. Revenue intelligence officers should strive to bring each case to its logical conclusion at the earliest possible time, she said, adding that smugglers would certainly leave a trail and that should be used to reach the main handlers who are actually behind the operation.
