The Madras High Court on Tuesday ordered the Tamil Nadu Government to not open any Tasmac liquor shops near highways for the next three months. The DMK had earlier filed an appeal against the order of Tamil Nadu Government to convert the national and state highways into district and corporation highways to open the Tasmac liquor shops back evading the verdict of the apex court. Notably, the apex court had ruled that liquor shops within 500 meters of national and state highways would have to shut down from April 1.
