Kishore lost a son to alcoholism
The minister of state for housing and urban affairs lost one of his sons, Akash Kishore, to alcoholism in October 2020, prompting the BJP lawmaker to roll out a campaign to save the young from “getting consumed by the brew”. Addressing a programme on de-addiction in the Lambhua assembly constituency last year, he called the tragedy as he appealed to people not to get their daughters and sisters married to alcoholics.
"My son (Akash Kishore) was into the habit of consuming alcohol with his friends. He was admitted to a de-addiction centre. Assuming that he would quit the bad habit, he was married after six months. However, he started drinking again after his marriage, and that eventually led to his death. Two years ago, on October 19, when Akash passed away, his son was barely two years old," the Union minister said.
Kaushal Kishore told the gathering, “I could not save my son, due to which his wife became a widow. You must save your daughters and sisters from this.”
