At least 31 people have died in India’s Bihar after drinking poisonous liquor!
According to the local official, 20 others were hospitalized after allegedly drinking illegally sold toxic alcohol in eastern India.
As reported, the victims belonged to three villages in the Saran district of Bihar state where the manufacturing, sale and consumption of liquor are prohibited.
Several people died on the way to the hospital and others died while being treated on Wednesday and Thursday, with local media reports putting the toll at 31.
According to senior police officer Santosh Kumar, several of the hospitalised people have lost their eyesight. He added that authorities cracked down on illicit alcohol shops in the area.
“We have arrested 126 people in the last 48 hours after the incident was reported and two cases have been registered,” Kumar told an international news outlet.
The sale and consumption of liquor have been banned in the area since 2016 after women’s groups campaigned against poor workers splurging their meagre incomes on drinking.
