The Congress has alleged that the government’s lenient approach is responsible for the rising drug culture in the State, including the violation of all the norms by the managements of pubs.
At a press conference here, TPCC working president, Mahesh Kumar Goud alleged that managements of the pubs have become a law-unto-themselves and are responsible for the drug culture that is deepening in the State. “With whose support they are functioning till 3 a.m., if not with IT Minister K.T. Rama Rao support,” he said.
Mr. Goud demanded that a Special Investigation Team (SIT) be set up under the national agencies and Mr. Rao should agree to this if he is sincere in rooting out the menace from the city. He said the way investigation into the drugs issues involving the film stars was suppressed by the government has also sent a wrong signal giving scope to the peddlers and consumers to further their activities without any fear.
