The office of the Deputy Commissioner of Mysuru district has issued an order to the malls and movie theatres to stop selling all cold drinks. The notice states that only tender coconut can be sold in the malls and movie theatres.
The notice is addressed to Mysore City Film Theatres' Association. However, this notice is limited to Mysuru district and selling of cold drinks will be continued in malls and cinema theatres in other places of Karnataka.
This decision was taken to help the farmers who have grown tender coconuts. It can be remembered that some time ago, Tamil Nadu had planned o ban selling of Coca Cola and Pepsi to encourage cold drinks manufactured locally.
This initiative of selling tender coconut will not only help the farmers but also people as it does not have any side effects.
People have also tried to sell tender coconut juice in tetra packs and bottles. The reaction of cinema Association of Mysuru is awaited in this regard.
