AP government reduced the price of liquor!!!


The andhra pradesh government has reduced the price of liquor to prevent people from coming to tamil Nadu and buying liquor. In andhra pradesh, the state government sells liquor through andhra pradesh State Beverages Corporation Limited (ABSPCL), just as Tasmac sells liquor in tamil Nadu. In the last 6 months, the price of liquor in andhra pradesh has risen sharply by up to 50 percent. This came as a shock to wine lovers. As a result, the number of Andhra bartenders at Tasmac stores on the Andhra-Tamil Nadu border began to increase. Revenue from shops in Tiruvallur and Vellore districts on the Andhra border also increased. Liquor purchased in tamil Nadu was smuggled to andhra pradesh and sold. This was brought to the notice of the government of Andhra Pradesh. Therefore, the andhra pradesh government has taken steps to curb the trend of going to tamil Nadu and buying alcohol. In this context, the andhra pradesh government has drastically reduced the selling price of liquor by 20 percent from the MRP. Thus the andhra pradesh government hopes that the move will reduce the trend of illegal sale of liquor on the black market.
