2009 Gujarat alcohol poisonings : ウィキペディア英語版 | 2009 Gujarat alcohol poisonings The 2009 Gujarat hooch tragedy occurred in July 2009 in Gujarat, resulting in the death of 136 people〔(Ahmedabad liquor death toll rises to 136 )〕 from consumption of bootleg liquor. ==Background== Gujarat had banned alcohol consumption since 1961 as a homage to Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi. However bootlegged alcohol, known as Hooch, is widely available, allegedly under the patronage of the local police.〔(crore business under cops' nose' )〕 Gujarat has witnessed several occasions of alcohol poisoning, claiming the lives of more than 400 people after the ban was enforced.〔(Hooch might return to haunt )〕 To counter the liquor mafia, the state government in 1996 formed the State Prohibition Department, which was dismantled in 2006 because of a shortage of police personnel. During the tenure of the department there were no incidents of alcohol poisoning in Gujarat.〔(Gujarat to build team to counter liquor mafia )〕 The revenue loss to Gujarat government because of the ban is estimated to be around Rs 30 Billion.〔(Call to end Gujarat alcohol ban after 122 deaths )〕
