In view of the recent judgment by The Honorable Supreme Court of India directing State Governments and Union Territories not to renew liquor licenses along national and state highways, alcohol will not be sold at any of the restaurants or hotels falling within 500 mts of any national and state highways across the country. After this judgment many hotels and restaurants have stopped serving liquor or making alternate arrangements for entry and exit from the hotel property to bypass this rule. This new act is still not clear and the implementation seems very vague at this early stage. Our file mangers are keeping a close eye on the impact of this ruling and shall keep you informed if any hotel used in the itinerary is not allowed to serve liquor because of this new rule. Kindly contact the EB File managers for more details. We shall update you once we receive further news on the same.
