On a high: Jaipur Municipal Corporation staff gulp sanitisers

JAIPUR: Mistaking hand sanitisers for liquor, some sanitation workers were found consuming them. Reason: Their packaging bears a close resemblance to country-made liquor bottles which is posing a major problem for the district administration and corporations.
These sanitisers have been manufactured by the state-owned Rajasthan State Ganganagar Sugar Mills (GSM) Limited
The Jaipur Municipal Corporation (JMC) has issued a warning to its workers not to confuse the sanitisers with liquor.A source at JMC said, “The pungent odour and packing of this sanitiser resembles that of country-made liquor. Some of the civic body workers are overjoyed at the thought that amid the lockdown, the government is providing them with subsidised liquor, without realizing that it is not fit for consumption. We issued the advisory and asked the distributors to educate the workers too”. Sources said, many of the sanitation workers are habitual drinkers of country-made liquor.
