    This goonda act will punish only the poor who will have their own liquor at home though not for sale.The Big fish will always escape even though so much labeled illicit liquor is sold in Karnataka.
    First they should withdraw BPL cards given to people who spend whole day at illegal liquor shops. People have become lazy to work and earn on their own. Many working class are just depend on their wife and children who will wrap beedies and make a living because rice and other grains are available very cheap under BPL cards.
    There is a lot labor shortage and all construction sites in Mangalore are filled with workers from other states where as many local workers are not doing any job.
