Patna, March 13 (TIWN) Bihar's Revenue and Land Reforms Minister Ram Surat Rai has landed himself in a soup after framing charges against the Principal of a school in Muzaffarpur district for his alleged involvement in an illicit liquor trade.

Ansubhashkar Kushwaha, brother of Amrendra Kumar Kushwaha, Principal of Arjun Memorial Gyan Vidya Mandir in Muzaffarpur, addressed the media jointly with RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav in the latter's official residence at 10 circular house here on Saturday.  Ansubhaskar said that the incident took place on November 8, 2020, when a liquor-laden truck with a Haryana number plate on it, entered the school premise that belongs to Rai.  "Being the Principal of the school, my brother immediately informed the matter to the Bochaha police station. He also called up Hansraj Rai, brother of the Cabinet Minister Ram Surat Rai, but he did not receive his call," Ansubhashkar said.  "A team of police reached the school and saw the liquor boxes being unloaded from a truck to four pickup vans, but did not take any action. The next day my brother was arrested after he reached the police station to report about the inaction," he alleged.
