Dear Friends,
Month of June is here, this is beginning of school season and many schools will be starting the academic year pretty soon. We all want our kids to have better education and want them to become a better citizens, but we forget one thing the society plays a critical role in the development of a child. Our child's growth and future depends on the ambiance and surroundings that we provide for them to grow.
TASMAC is the state run wine shops in our great state of Tamil Nadu. With growing sales at TASMAC in recent past the shops have mushroomed uncontrolled in all places with out any care. As a good citizen and want our kids to have better tomorrow we should take a oath to stop buying drinks from those TASMAC shops that are close to any schools, any places of worship and any places places like railway station, bus stand, parks etc.
Why do I say this?
These are the places our kids regularly use and if they see all these men drinking they naturally get intrigued to find more about it especially in teen age. We as responsible Madras vasi should not give this opportunity for our kids. I cannot say not to drink because that is individual preference and I am no authority to ask somebody not to drink, but as a friend I request you to avoid buying drinks from TASMAC shops that are close to these places so that sales go down and the shops close them selves.
This could be the first step that we can take to completely remove alcohol from our society. If you want to physically see the abuse caused in person please try to visit Guindy Station on race course and you can experience the problem first hand. I am not sure Govt is going to take action because it is a nice source of income for them to fill up the coffers. So we need to stand united in curbing this abuse.
Let me know your thoughts
