India in Bush's list of major illicit drug-producing countries

US President George W Bush has again listed India among countries, which are major producers of illicit drugs entering the United States or whose territory serves as a transit route for such drugs.

However, he noted in a report to Congress that a country's presence on the list is 'not an adverse reflection on its government's counter narcotics efforts or on the level of its cooperation with the United States'.

With India in the list are Pakistan, the Bahamas, Bolivia, Brazil, Burma, Chna, Colombia, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Guatemala, Haiti, Jamaica, Laos, Mexico, Nigeria, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Thailand, Venezuela and Vietnam.
