On Dry Day, the Indore Excise Department raided two outlets in the Khudel police area, confiscating 72.85 litres of illicit liquor and filing cases against two suspects.
The Excise Department of Madhya Pradesh conducted a coordinated raid on Dry Day in Indore's Khudel police jurisdiction. Officials targeted Barodiyā Kārā and Badshah Dhaba, seizing a total of 72.85 litres of illegal liquor and beer.
The operation was carried out under the direct orders of the district collector, who emphasized strict enforcement of Dry Day prohibitions. During the raid, two individuals were identified as the primary offenders and have been booked under the state's excise laws.
Authorities have not disclosed further details about the source of the contraband or any upcoming investigations, but the seizure underscores the department's heightened vigilance during periods when alcohol sales are prohibited.
The incident adds to a series of recent crackdowns across the state aimed at curbing illicit alcohol trade, which poses health risks and undermines revenue collection.
