The book contains an exhaustive commentary on the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act 1985, with reference to case law of the Supreme Court of India as well as the High Courts. The scope of the Act was widened with the NDPS (Amendment) Act 2001, to identify drug traffickers and the concepts of controlled substances' and 'controlled delivery' were introduced.

Changes regarding search, seizure, arrest and investigation with presumption for illegal possession were also introduced.
