Residents of Sriram Nagar, located near IIT Madras in the Saidapet Assembly constituency, have alleged that a TASMAC liquor outlet in the area is operating in violation of prescribed norms, with sales reportedly taking place round the clock.
According to local residents, the shop is said to open even before the legally permitted hours, with liquor allegedly being sold continuously throughout the day and night. They claim that such illegal operations have contributed to a rise in disturbances and criminal incidents in the neighbourhood.
Residents further expressed concern over the impact on students, noting that school and college-going boys and girls frequently pass through the area and are being exposed to an unsafe environment due to the alleged activities around the outlet.
