Uttar Pradesh Finance and Parliamentary Affairs Minister Suresh Khanna, while speaking to reporters on Saturday regarding the codeine-laced cough syrup, mentioned the action taken.

In this context, targetting the Samajwadi Party, Suresh Khanna said a photo of the party’s national president Akhilesh Yadav with the codeine mafia has surfaced, therefore, instead of giving vague answers, he should reveal the truth behind the photo with the codeine mafia. The entire country wants to know the truth behind this photo. “The SP did not say anything about the deaths of children in the country due to the cough syrup. Large-scale drug trafficking took place and resulted in deaths, but nothing was said about it. Those arrested have some connection or the other with the people from the Samajwadi Party,” he alleged.

He added by saying, “The UP government has already clarified that not a single death has occurred in Uttar Pradesh due to this. Despite this, the Yogi government took prompt action in this matter”.
Cough syrup worth Rs 9.42 crore has been seized. 12,65,455 bottles of codeine-based syrup were recovered. Khanna assured that as the SIT’s investigation progresses, action will be taken against everyone found to be involved.
