Hitting out at the Uddhav Thackeray-led MVA government for lifting the six-year-old liquor ban in Chandrapur district, Pune-based Right To Information activist and Aam Aadmi Party leader Vijay Kumbhar said that the State, which had been deferring taking decisions on important issues for some months now, had taken swift action to lift the alcohol ban.
The State Home Department on Tuesday issued the government resolution detailing the guidelines for lifting the liquor ban in Chandrapur.
Mr. Kumbhar said the government had also directed the State excise commissioner to issue necessary guidelines separately at their level to make the process of licence execution or renewal transparent, easy and expeditious in case liquor shop owners faced any difficulty in opening their establishments.
