One should not speak ill of those who drink alcohol in the morning

TN Minister Muthuswamy’s statement

Chennai – One should not speak ill of those who drink alcohol in the morning and they should not be labelled as drunkards. It is a different matter for those who drink alcohol in the morning. Those who give up working hard with the body are drinking alcohol, unable to avoid it. We should understand this, stated TN Minister Muthuswamhy. Earlier Muthuswamy had proposed the need to discuss the sale of alcohol to those who would go to work between 7 and 9 in the morning.

Editorial Viewpoint

How would morality be upheld in the State if the minister makes such statements ? Can they think about what impact it would have on children ?
