Patna, Dec 19 : Amid criticism of the Nitish Kumar government over the hooch tragedy in Bihars Saran, Lalan Singh, the national president of JD(U) attacked the BJP while citing data from other states and said that Madhya Pradesh topped the chart of deaths.
Lalan Singh, while tagging Sushil Kumar Modi, asked him in a tweet to look into the data from other states too before levelling allegations on the Bihar government.
"Making and selling of spurious liquor is a criminal act.It is not only the incident in Saran but it happened in the entire country.You should look at the data before speaking to others.
Bihar had made the largest human chain against liquor and BJP was part of it.He has to remember it," Singh said in the tweet.Citing data in the tweet, Singh said, "The Nitish Kumar government had imposed a liquor ban on April 1, 2016.1322 persons have lost their lives due to hooch tragedy or due to consumption of liquor in Madhya Pradesh from 2016 to 2021.On the other hand, Bihar had registered only 23 deaths during the period, which was the lowest in the country.
