UP CM forms SIT to probe hooch tragedy


Former UP CM Akhilesh Yadav said, “The opposition has been notifying the government about such activities, but they did not wake up as some of its leaders are involved. The truth is that without the backing of the government, such businesses cannot be carried out. The BJP should accept the fact that they cannot run the state.”
