Pre-Booze May Soon Dominate Party Scenes in Rajasthan as Govt Doubles Down on 8pm Deadline
Monday, January 21, 2019 IST
Rajasthan Chief Minster Ashok Gehlot has said that those caught selling liquor after 8 pm will be penalised.
Jaipur: Planning a party anytime soon? You may want to stock up on liquor early on. For, Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot has asked officials to ensure closure of liquor shops in the state sharp at 8pm.
Chairing a meeting of excise and police officials, Gehlot asked them to impose penalty if any liquor shop is found open after the assigned time.
The closure time for liquor shops was fixed at 8 pm in 2008 during Gehlot's earlier term as the chief minister.
The CM also directed the officials to check smuggling of illegal liquor from neighbouring states and take action on complaints about charging more than the printed price on liquor bottles.
Senior officials of the excise and police department were present in the meeting.
