At least 31 people died and over 60 are being treated in hospitals after consuming tainted liquor in the southern Indian state of Tamil Nadu, a government spokesperson said on Thursday. Over 100 people are suffering from vomiting, stomach ache and diarrhea.

Police arrested Govindaraj, 49, who goes by his first name, for selling illicit liquor and also seized 200 litres of the methanol-mixed alcoholic drink, the government said.

The state government suspended at least 10 officials, including the district's collector and police chief, over the illicit liquor incident, according to a statement.

More than a dozen people died last year in a similar incident in a nearby district in Tamil Nadu.
