Chennai: Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M K Stalin on Saturday told the Assembly that the onus on the hooch tragedy will be on district police superintendent and local police official and accused the opposition AIADMK of raising the Kallakurichi hooch tragedy to conceal its dismal performance in the Lok Sabha elections and crisis within that party.
Asserting that the state government has nothing to hide about the Kallakurichi spurious liquor incident, he said the opposition party’s demand for CBI probe was uncalled for as his government has acted swiftly on the incident and arrested the offenders, shifted officials, constituted an enquiry commission and ordered a probe by the Crime Branch CID.
“We created a situation where no one can escape,” the chief minister added.
