The Karnataka Wine Merchants Body has come forward, alleging that Excise Minister R.B. Thimmapur is involved in bribery and corruption related to the transfer of licenses and issuing bar permits. This situation has created quite a buzz on social media, especially with the tweet from Shehzad Jai Hind, which states, “Huge AFTER MUDA SCAM NOW ₹ 700cr LIQUOR SCAM IN KARNATAKA.”
