Increased Price of Liquor in Delhi Triggers Memes on Social Media
May 06, 2020
A new phase of lockdown started on Monday and that included an easing of restrictions. People were allowed to purchase liquor from shops while following social distancing norms. This relaxation failed as people crowded the shops and lines stretched up to one kilometer.
The government decided to add ‘Corona Fee’ and the prices of alcohol in each category will be hiked by 70 percent. This triggered a hilarious meme fest. Here are some of the best ones.
