Begusarai: In a shocking incident that has raised serious concerns over the enforcement of prohibition laws in Bihar, liquor was recovered from the toilet of a government school in Begusarai after an 11-year-old student allegedly consumed alcohol and fell ill. The incident comes even as Bihar grapples with hooch tragedy in Motihari, where at least 11 people died three days ago after consuming spurious liquor, intensifying scrutiny on illegal liquor networks in the state. According to officials, the matter came to light when the Class 4 student returned home in an inebriated condition. Alarmed by his behaviour and the smell of alcohol, family members questioned his friends, who revealed that liquor bottles were hidden near a locked toilet inside the school premises.
