Kerala Govt undertaking that makes Jawan rum in trouble over lesser quantity in bottles

Synopsis

The Legal Metrology Department of Kerala found a shortage in the quantity of Jawan Rum at the Travancore Sugars and Chemicals Limited in Thiruvalla, an undertaking of the state government.

Thiruvalla: A quantitative deficiency in a bottle of Jawan Rum led the Legal Metrology Department of Kerala to file a case against Thiruvalla Travancore Sugars and Chemicals Limited. Following an inspection, the Legal Metrology Net Content Unit registered a case. The report of the investigation will be submitted to the Thiruvalla court today.

During the inspection, there was found a shortage in the quantity of Jawan Rum in one-litre bottles. The Legal Metrology Department inspected due to a written complaint. A team of officials from Ernakulam inspected the facility for an hour on Wednesday.
