Vijay Launches Sweeping TASMAC Crackdown, Targets Alleged ₹1,600 Crore Revenue Leakage Network
Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Vijay has ordered an extensive crackdown on alleged revenue leakages and unofficial collections within TASMAC, the state's liquor monopoly. Government sources claim nearly ₹102 crore was being diverted every month through informal channels, with estimated losses touching ₹1,600 crore over five years. The new administration has launched a major transparency drive, reviewed the bottle-return system and already shut 717 liquor outlets as part of a broader reform agenda.
