One cannot stop a alcohol addict unless there is no alcohol in any part of the world. Tasmac is preventing illegal alcohol and saving deaths.. but good thing will be to keep the Tasmac outside city or well away from temples, schools etc. Interesting information that I read is.. Tasmac supply comes from a particular distillery (almost 75%) and it owned by DMK. That is interesting....

[h=1]Tamil Nadu's 'corrupt' cash cow TASMAC: How politics & liquor came to form a potent mix in the state[/h]Jan 11, 2015, 10.20AM IST
Sandhya Ravishankar
Twenty eight-year-old Parthiban stops by the local "wine shop", which despite the moniker sells anything but wine, in his autorickshaw.
He is in a hurry and asks for the "special" — two "cuttings" of a new brand of alcohol locally called Andhra Packet.
"One cutting is enough to make you fly like a rocket," he grins as he downs it. "I take two just for the kick."
Andhra Packet is a small pouch of spurious liquor costing Rs 20 each. It was once sold surreptitiously, but has found its way into alcohol retail outlets run by the state government.
That shouldn't surprise: Tamil Nadu loves its drink and consumes 17% of the alcohol in the entire country. Especially when this deadly cocktail of liquor and corruption is prepared by politicians.
