Organised crime is a category of local, national or transnational groupings of highly centralised enterprises run by criminals. In India, organised criminal activities include extortion, contract killing, drug trafficking, money laundering and hawala, illegal immigration, trading of illicit arms, gambling, terrorism, prostitution and smuggling.The key organised crime activity is the supply of illegal goods and services to countless numbers of consumers.
One such internal planned crime that is deepening its roots in the North-Eastern states of India (West Bengal, Assam, Arunachal Pradesh and others) is rampant smuggling of diesel and lubricants. Diesel is being smuggled from nearby states by road. Then it is illegally dumped in oil tankers and sold to petrol pump owners and other industrial units at very low rates. Lubricants are also illegally bought and then sold at lower prices to big industrial houses, bulk transports and farmers, and others.
According to sources, the people connected with oil mafia purchase petrol pumps either on their names or on names of their family members or associates, and easily run their huge syndicate of illegal diesel and lubricants.
Oil mafia makes enormous amount of money through these illicit trades. The money thus accumulated, is used in hawala, leading to money laundering and terrorist and militant financing. It is to be noted here that hawala is very much prevalent in India and hawala transactions are being used to fund terrorist activities in India and many other parts of the world.
This fuel smuggling is growing rapidly because of the incompetency of existing procedures in collecting adequate evidence to bring criminal charges against such organised criminal syndicates. Hence, they easily escape from the hands of police and no legal actions are taken against them.
Drishti Bharat believes that it is its prime duty to alert the national investigation agencies about such illicit trades being carried out in North eastern states of India. These trades not only negatively affect the country’s economy but also have detrimental effects on the citizens of the country. Such criminals must be arrested, putting end to these illegitimate and unlawful businesses.

The home ministry made it clear that there is no reported case of damage to the structure of any mosque in Tripura in the recent past. “There is no report of simple or grievous injury or rape or death of any person in these incidents as alleged in some social media posts,” it said.

There has been violence in some parts of Maharashtra following rallies taken out by Muslim organisations on Friday to protest against incidents in Tripura. In Amravati, over 8,000 people had gathered outside the district collector’s office on Friday to submit a memorandum demanding that atrocities against the minority community in Tripura be stopped.
