The US Embassy in New Delhi has revoked and denied visas to several Indian corporate heads, executives, and their families for alleged links to drug trafficking.

He added that stopping fentanyl is a top US priority, with strong cooperation from India. The embassy also flagged companies tied to the trade for extra checks.
