The CM revealed that they decided to hike the price with an average 16 percent, while it is 11 percent on low priced liquor.

There are around 2200 wine shops in Telangana and except 15 stores in containment zones, all will be opened from 10 am tomorrow. KCR stressed once again that bars, pubs, and clubs remain closed.
KCR issued a strict warning in his live press meet to the wine shop owners and also costumers, to maintain physical distancing. Those who do not abide by the rules of COVID-19, KCR warned of dire consequences along with canceling the license of wine shops.
The Telangana CM asked the media to record and click pictures at wine shops and said he will watch it all tomorrow and if he finds any negligence in following the rules, the action will be taken instantly.
Well, finally, KCR also warned the costumers at wine shops to use masks and said, there will be no liquor sold for those not using masks. He also asked the public to use masks while visiting grocery stores.
