According to reports, the consignment of liquor was brought from Assam. Meanwhile, truck driver Paramjit Singh was admitted to the Covid Centre in Maheshbathana for treatment after he was found positive in the corona test from where he escaped by scaling the wall on Tuesday night.

Superintendent of Police Kumar Ashish said on Wednesday that efforts are on to arrest the absconding accused. Tell me, nearly 5 years have passed since the prohibition came into force in Bihar.
