In a strongly-worded letter to Congress leadership, former councillor Hemant Ostwal has questioned the silence of five Congress MLAs over a major illicit liquor and counterfeit hologram seizure in Dongargarh, Rajnandgaon. Despite being in the opposition, Congress legislators have remained inactive, prompting Ostwal to demand immediate intervention from PCC Chief Deepak Baij, senior leader Sachin Pilot, and Rahul Gandhi. The scandal, involving a farmhouse allegedly run by Rohit Netam alias Sonu, could expose deep-rooted corruption within the excise department and calls for a thorough EOW investigation.
