NOB-Bharat news: Seemingly ready to dismantle the smuggling network, Nirmala Sitharaman has asked DRI officials to identify and take action against the masterminds of smuggling syndicates. Instead of being satisfied with catching low-level smuggling operatives, Nirmala Sitharaman told the Directorate of Revenue Intelligence officials to find the root cause of the crime and bring the case to a conclusion. The aim should be to crack the entire network, not just to identify cases here and there. I have said this many times. There is no point in you catching small fish. “There are big whales that our fishing line cannot catch,” the minister said at the inauguration of the new headquarters of the DRI. I have observed two cases. I am waiting for you to take them to a conclusion. This conclusion means, first, punishing the guilty. Second, finding the mastermind of the case,” she suggested.
