BRICS member states adopted the Guwahati Declaration to combat drug trafficking, according to *The Hindu*. India announced that it will host the BRICS Heads of Anti‑Drug Agencies Meeting on July 6‑7 in Guwahati, Assam, as reported by *Tribune India*. In the same statement, *The Hindu* said India called for a partnership built on speed, trust and seamless real‑time intelligence sharing to fight transnational drug syndicates.
