“The liquor ban has completely failed in Bihar. The state government does not have the power to address the issue. Nitish Kumar’s claim of a successful liquor ban is completely false,” the RJD national General Secretary added.The statement of the RJD leader came after two BJP MLAs — Hari Bhushan Singh Bachaul and Kundan Singh questioned the liquor ban in the state.Bachaul, a BJP MLA from Bipsi in Madhubani district, demanded rollback on liquor ban. He said the state exchequer is incurring revenue losses due to the ban.Kundan Singh, BJP MLA from Begusarai, said crime rate is increasing due to the liquor ban in the state.”While the state police is keeping an eye on liquor operations in Bihar, crimes like murder, kidnapping, rape, theft and other cases are increasing now. The Bihar police is not paying attention to the rising crime graph,” Singh added.
