Noting wrong in consuming alcohol after dinner: Manjhi

Manjhi said there is nothing wrong in consuming alcohol after dinner.

“I don't think it is wrong for a person who work hard for all the day and after returning to home ...after eating food if he consumes alcohol (Sharab thoda pine mein harz nahin hai, din mein nahin, raat me thodi piya karein),” he had said in September while addressing a Mahadalit Adhikar Sammelan in Danapur near Patna.

He advised the Mahadalits that they should take booze as medicine if they were unable to give it up.

"Alcohol is a bane of society and has ruined many families. Owing to their addiction, the Mahadalits are not able to look after their children properly or improve their lifestyle. If you have to drink alcohol, you should take a little of it in the form of medicine," he said.
Manjhi had said that he was about 70-year-old, but he had never consumed alcohol in his life.
