Democracy has its own implication
over decentralizing alcoholism. Kerala is renowned for its decisive share to
boost up the excise revenue of the Kerala Government. During all festive
seasons Keralites are competing geographically and provincially to break the
alcoholic records. But quite unfortunately nowadays the Bar attached hotels are
suffering from acute shortage in having their minimum market share. Almost all
Bars in the cities are like graveyards with terrific silence. The Barmen and
waiters are totally frustrated for not having enough inmates to cater them. The
total revenue of these hotels has terribly come down @ 50% as it was earlier. With
the coming of Panchayat elections, all political leaders have mobilized their
army to the Panchayat and their primary and essential need of having daily alcohol
dosage been ensured and catered in the Panchayat itself. Official sources states that the total revenue on sales at beverage corporation sales counters in Kerala has been boosted up to eight fold during the two weeks prior to election. In the wider sense it
is a kind of decentralizing the spirit of democracy to the Panchayat so as to
rename democracy as the spirit of Drinkocrazy.
