Operation Numkhor to figure in Indo-Bhutan Customs meeting

Operation Numkhor — a nationwide crackdown on the large-scale smuggling of premium second-hand vehicles through Bhutan and forged registration rackets involving Motor Vehicle Department (MVD) officials — is likely to figure prominently in the Indo–Bhutan Joint Customs Group meeting scheduled to be held in Munnar next week.

A Bhutanese delegation will be in Munnar from April 20 to 23. The Joint Customs Group meeting is expected to take place on April 20 and 21, followed by a joint border management group session.
