India is badly in the grasp of alcoholic drinks. This is the worst aspect of our country.

But India is not in the list of top alcohol consuming countries.

Though India is not in the list, let me say a few words about my state....
It's a state of 3.5 crore population. In 2 days of Onam celebrations, this state alone spend 200 crore money for alcohol in beverage corporation. This statistics doesn't include third onam or 4th onam...just 2 days. It also doesn't include alchohol consumed from hotels...
My state is drinking a lot!!

This is festivity. The people do not drink regularly. But in the countries topping the list, alcohol consumption is a daily routine.

Here are top alcohol consumption countries. Most are in East Europe.

These countries are in cold climate. In India also, there is local wine in hilly and cold area. Indian tribal and hill people also take wine. But I feel that their consumption has not been considered as the wine is local or Desi and not English.

I think Indians also booze a lot. The maximum number of alcoholics in India are in Punjab, followed by Kerala.

yes, Kerala is in the list. May be because per-capita income of Keralites is high....
All drinkers can easily give 100-200 everyday from his pockets when he earns 700 or above everyday. :blink: That's the reason :evil: :evil:

I also thought its more in Punjab but the top most state in alcohol consumption is Maharashtra... Strange but true...

Nearly 62.5 million people in India drink alcohol with the per capita consumption being around four litres per adult per year.

kerala is India's tippler country. It has the highest per capita consumption - over eight litres (1.76 gallons) per person a year - in the nation, overtaking traditionally hard-drinking states like Punjab and Haryana

It is increasing day by day in our countries.The people are much addicted to alcohol.

Climate of these countries is very cold. Alcohol is one of the need of that people. So, consumption is more than India.

I am surprised not see US and UK on the list. :blink:

Even there is no Asian country in the list. I thought US is the top alcohol consuming country but now my doubts are cleared. :blink:
