The Nitish Kumar government has decided to conduct census of those who have given up the habit of drinking liquor in dry Bihar. It has also directed police and administrative officials to continue their action against liquor mafia with the help of drones, sniffer dogs, motorboats etc.
“The previous survey has said 1.64 crore people have quit liquor drinking but now we have decided to conduct census to find out the exact number of those who have given up the habit”, Mr. Kumar said at a meeting of the Prohibition and Excise department on Monday.
