The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Sunday alleged that the cause for rising crime in Chhattisgarh is due to easy availability of illegal liquor in the state.
Leader of Opposition Narayan Chandel also said that neither officials nor Ministers have met the family members of victims of the Kumhari massacre. He demanded compensation of Rs 4 crores from the government.
The bodies of Bholanath Yadav (34), his wife Naila (30), son Parmad (12) and daughter Mukta (7), all residents of Kaspada village, were found in a farm house. Police on Saturday arrested three persons in the case. Chandel said after meeting the victims' family members and villagers, it was found that the business of illegal liquor was responsible for it.
