Former Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) officer and legal expert Dr. Monish Bhalla has released his latest book Narco Jihad – When Drugs Fund Terror, a hard-hitting expose on how Pakistan-sponsored narco-terrorism is destabilising India. The book, launched on India’s Independence Day, August 15, 2025, highlights how drugs are not just a crime or health issue, but a national security threat.
Dr. Bhalla, who has authored more than 20 books and 600+ articles, brings decades of frontline experience in narcotics enforcement, Customs, and GST. His earlier bestseller India Drugged – An Eye Opener is currently being adapted into a major OTT crime series.
In Narco Jihad, Dr. Bhalla investigates real cases like the Mundra Port heroin seizure and the Pahalgam terror attack (April 22, 2025), where court proceedings linked drug money to the assault claimed by LeT proxy TRF. The book explains how maritime routes, border smuggling, drones, hawala networks, and crypto flows are being weaponised to fund hybrid warfare against India.
Quoting from the book, Dr. Bhalla warns:
The book is not limited to diagnosis but pushes for solutions:
Speaking on his inspiration, Dr. Bhalla said:
“The Pahalgam terror attack was the spark. Having seen how drugs repeatedly funded violence in India, I connected the dots. Pakistan’s narco-terrorism is a deliberate hybrid war strategy, and India must recognise it before it is too late.”
Narco Jihad – When Drugs Fund Terror is now available globally in India, the US, and the UK. A Hindi edition and audiobook are in the works, along with a sequel focused on Pakistan’s narco-state, drone smuggling, fentanyl, and judicial reforms.
