India's rising exports: Ketamine

India has become a major ketamine source for South East Asian countries, with the number and quantity of seizures rising. Ketamine, while restricted for export, is not banned in India as in many of the countries it supplies. Ketamine does not as yet fall under the Narcotics Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act, under which offences can lead to a 10-year jail sentence.
