Bjp's state farmers' wing president G K Nagaraj told reporters after the protest,
The sale of illicit liquor in Tamil Nadu should be controlled. Through the protest, the government is being urged to reduce tasmac shops as well.
Tamil Nadu is on its way to destruction. The government, which has given Rs 10 lakh to those who died after consuming illicit liquor, is not providing adequate compensation to those who die in accidents.
We have been demanding for years that we should be allowed to die. The Tamil Nadu government is not bothered about the demand that the ban on nutritious food should be lifted. But it is promoting alcoholism which is very harmful to the body.
This is what he said.
More than 200 Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) workers participated in the protest.
