Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman condemned the Hooch tragedy in Tamil Nadu, highlighting that over 200 people are hospitalised and 56 have died, mainly from the scheduled caste. She criticised the Congress party, particularly President Mallikarjun Kharge and Rahul Gandhi, for their silence on the issue.

She called for a CBI investigation into the matter.
