Hello
The shortage ahead of festival season is likely to affect the revenue of liquor outlets.
The Excise Department is in favour of the proposal submitted by Bevco to open 190 new outlets.
The new policy would stress on producing wine from crops widely cultivated in the state such as pineapple, banana, cashew and nutmeg.
As if to further prove that the LDF government will in no way encourage liquor consumption, the draft policy has fixed a higher annual fee for bars.
