Hooch Tragedy

According to Bihar DGP Alok Raj, the death toll in the hooch tragedy that struck Bihar's Siwan and Saran districts has risen to 24.

The BJP criticized the DMK government sharply after the Tamil Nadu hooch tragedy in Kallakuruchi district, where over 56 lives, mostly from the Dalit community, were lost.

The Tamil Nadu government has also ordered a judicial inquiry into the tragedy, led by retired Madras High Court judge Justice B Gokuldas, who is expected to submit a report within three months.
