On Monday, the Supreme Court refused to hear the petition for SIT investigation into the deaths due to spurious liquor in Chhapra, Bihar.

The court said that the matter can be taken to the High Court.

Only the High Court has the right to issue orders in this matter including SIT investigation, compensation, national plan on illicit liquor.

If the petition is filed in the High Court, it will be heard prominently. 

CJI DY Chandrachud said that the petitioners should go to the High Court regarding this matter.

The High Court can give all the relief sought in the petition.

The petitioner said that this matter is not only in Bihar but also in other states. 

In fact, the Aryavart Mahasabha Foundation has filed a petition in the Supreme Court on the issue of death due to spurious liquor in Chhapra, Bihar 

.

In this petition, there has been a demand for SIT investigation into the matter and compensation to be given to the victims.

Apart from this, a demand has also been made to make a national action plan to control the manufacture, trade and sale of illegal liquor across the country.  

Let us tell you that in December last year, many people had died due to drinking poisonous liquor in Chhapra, Bihar.

Due to this incident, the Nitish government of the liquor-prohibition state had suffered a lot.

Here, taking strict action in the matter, the Bihar Police had arrested more than a hundred people.
