Three Men Die in Uttar Pradesh After Consuming Suspected Spurious LiquorNext

Three young men from Kishorpur village in Uttar Pradesh's Etah district died after consuming suspected expired or spurious liquor on Bhai Dooj. They fell ill shortly after drinking near a local water pump and were declared dead at a hospital. Families allege the liquor was adulterated or past its expiry date, but authorities have not confirmed this. Police have launched an investigation, with post-mortem and toxicology tests underway to determine the exact cause of death, which has deeply affected the village community.
