As
campaigning for the Lok Sabha election draws close in Tamil Nadu, verses from
the holy Quran are quoted against the sitting DMK MP from the Arakkonam
Parliamentary constituency for owning liquor factories.
PMK’s
Arakkonam candidate K. Balu is urging the people to vote against
Jagatrakshagan, who owns two distilleries in his constituency.

Holy Quran
clearly says; “those who make people drink liquor are “Satans.” “There
are ten sins mentioned in the holy Quran that are related to the manufacture,
marketing, and retail sale of the liquor. Jagatrakshagan is involved in eight
of the sins,” K. Balu says quoting verses from the Holy Quran.
In the
pamphlet K. Balu, urges that; Jagatrakshagan owns two liquor factories, ‘Accord
Breweries and Distilleries’ in Nathanallur and Illayanar Veyloor villages in
the Kanchipuram District of Tamil Nadu.
He appeals
to the Muslims to vote against sitting MP because the Quran is totally against
liquor consumption and gambling.
K. Balu was
campaigning in Melvisharam, part of Ranipet Assembly Constituency with a large
Muslim population.
