Current understanding

One report says a fatal concoction killed 12 and that a gang mimicked booze associated with Madhya Pradesh brands. [1]

Another report says nine people died and five were hospitalised after consuming spurious liquor in Madhya Pradesh. [2]

The two headlines differ on the death toll and on how the alcohol is described, so the reported scale and details appear inconsistent across the reports. [1][2]
