Indians have a lot of problems with alcohol but the Irish and then Germans aren't so far behind. Some people in hopeless situations or with little to do will drink and the genes are one of the largest determinatives for whether they become alcoholics or not. Young adults are drawn to alcohol as a means of "letting their hair down" or to meet the opposite sex. Some use it to self medicate boredom or the ups and downs of life.
...Or to forget.
Almost anyone who drinks too much for too long can become an alcoholic. Some research suggests that it's a mild alergy to alcohol that makes it more likely and this alergy is common in Indians, Irish, etc.
Indians have a lower life expectancy even outside the influence of alcohol.
If they win then anyone with Irish blood should get a share as well.
Of course someone could just tell them to exercise some self control and don't drink to get rid of depression or hangovers since this is the fastest way to the DT's. It's just hard for some people and among indians it can be especially hard.
It's a hundred times harder for alcoholics than indians and some of them make it.
