Village agitates for closure of illegal liquor shop, no response

Surendra Hanspal is reporting from a village 55 kms from capital Raipur where villagers are doing a movement demanding closure of liquor shop in their village. According to law any village which have less population than 2000 should not have a liquor shop. The village Sandi Murpar has 395 voters and villagers say there is also a liquor shop just 12 kms away but their complaint so far has gone to deaf ears,. They say local media is also not co-operating to highlight their continuous movement
