“During KCR’s administration, public health was protected by ensuring no adulterated liquor was available,” Krishank said. He urged the Congress government to revoke the permissions granted to Som Distilleries to prevent the distribution of harmful and adulterated liquor in Telangana. “We hope you will accept our request and immediately revoke the permissions granted to Som Distilleries to protect the health of consumers,” he stated.
Excise Minister Jupally Krishna Rao initially claimed that there are no plans to allow new liquor companies in Telangana on May 21. But after the BRS made relevant documents public on May 27, he admitted that permissions were given, but without his knowledge.
