Janagama Has Highest Liquor Consumers in Telangana!
X
The liquor sales in Telangana are going up with each passing year. It goes even further during any festivals. After the state was bifurcated, the rise started to grow, and compared to 2014, liquor consumption in the state had increased by around three folds, which is quite high.

To tell how the consumption is increasing rapidly, liquor worth over Rs 30,000 crore was sold for the fiscal year (2021-22) in the state reportedly. This made the Telangana Town Planning Department conduct a statewide survey to know the consumption levels of various regions across the state.

As per the media reports, Jangaon tops the list with as much as 60.6 percent of the population consuming liquor followed by Yadadri Bhuvanagiri district(58.4 percent), and Mahabubabad district(56.5 percent).

The three regions have the highest percentage of liquor consumers. The surprising fact is that Hyderabad has just 28 percent of liquor consumers. Even though it enjoys the highest population in the state, the capital city has fewer liquor consumers.

Looking at the total liquor consumers in the state, the percentage is around 43.3 percent. Out of every 100 women, seven consume liquor. Surprisingly, the Medak district has as much as 23.8 percent of liquor consumers of women.
