Liquor outlets should be closed, says Tamil Nadu BJP president L. Murugan
Tamil Nadu BJP president L. Murugan on June 13 questioned Chief Minister M.K. Stalin why he and his party were double-faced on the issue of closure of Tasmac shops and demanded that the liquor outlets be closed. The Tamil Nadu government as part of COVID-19 lockdown relaxations announced that Tasmac liquor outlets can function from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. “When Mr. Stalin was the Opposition leader, he demanded that Tasmac outlets be closed. When the government [AIADMK] announced reopening of the liquor outlets during the first wave of COVID-19, Mr. Stalin and his party condemned it and held large protests. Now after coming to power, he is reopening the shops,” Mr. Murugan said, leading a protest to condemn the move at the party headquarters, Kamalalayam.
