Chevella: MP Konda Vishweshwar Reddy wrote a letter to the Chief Electoral Officer of Telangana,Dr Rajat Kumar,requesting him to restrict the use of alcohol and to consider using of breath analyzers at the polling booths, at the least in Tandur assembly constituency.

Drunk and drive might hurt individuals, but supplying alcohol before and during polls will hurt the democratic values at its core. Hence, we have to restrict the use of alcohol as tool for winning the elections,” the MP wrote in his letter on Saturday.
