(Chowdhury, 2013)
It is evident from the above table that gold smuggling in 2010 -11 periods was worth only 1722 crores of Indian rupees whereas in 2013-2014, it has reached to 250 crores The case is not much different about other smuggling items also It is evident from the above statistics that, smuggling is increasing in India along with economic progress The loopholes of globalization and free trade agreements are utilized cleverly by the smugglers in India
As has always been the case, there are limits to how much Washington can deter and detect illicit economic activities across US borders, especially while maintaining an open society and allowing legal trade and travel In 2010, an average of nearly one million people, 250,000 privately owned vehicles, and more than 60,000 truck, rail, and ship containers legally entered the country every day That same year, more than $2 trillion in legal imports crossed US borders
