Kallakurichi Superintendent of Police, Rajat Chaturvedi, said that raids are going on in the state over the incident and the police will give a press note soon.
Tamil Nadu Health Minister Subramaniam Ma met with the Kallakurichi hooch victims at the Salem Government Medical College and Hospital and inquired about the treatment being provided to them on Friday.
The second day of the Tamil Nadu Assembly Session began in Chennai on Friday with a ruckus as AIADMK legislators sporting black clothes raised slogans inside the House over the hooch tragedy in Kallakurichi.
Sushil Modi said, "In 2018, as per media reports, CM Nitish Kumar said compensation will be given if liquor proved to be cause of death. He promised Rs 4 Lakhs to the kin of hooch victims. In Khajurbani hooch tragedy, compensation was given to the victims' kin. Why not in Saran tragedy?"<
