Sirohi : Liquor contractors in Sirohi are overpowering the excise and police. Despite the ban on selling liquor after 8 pm, liquor is being sold indiscriminately. The surprising thing is that not only common people but even policemen are seen buying liquor in black. Due to which illegal sale of liquor is in full swing.
Sale under the nose of police
Despite strict instructions from the police headquarters, the sale of liquor continues unabated even after 8 pm. A few months ago, the Chief Minister had also fixed the responsibility of the concerned police station officer and circle officer regarding such cases, but the result remained the same. Liquor is being sold throughout the night right under the nose of the police. This is the situation at the district headquarters itself. Liquor is being sold at almost every shop in the city till late night, but the police is sitting idle. Apart from the common people, policemen are also seen among those buying liquor.
All shops in the city are under strict rules
In Sirohi city itself, rules and regulations have been ignored in almost all the shops from outer Ghati to Goyali intersection and Rajmata Dharamshala, Bhatkara intersection, Anadara intersection to RIICO area. Liquor is easily available even after 10:30 pm. Usually, the contractors who serve liquor from the windows also open the shutters of the shop when the customer base is high. Same is the situation in almost all the shops of Sirohi city.
Liquor easily available even at ten o’clock at night
As per the orders of the state government, it is illegal to sell liquor after 8 pm in the state. By the way, the maximum sale of liquor happens only after eight o’clock in the night. Liquor is being sold openly at liquor vends under shutters at night and from the windows of shops. Even between 10 to 11 pm, alcohol is easily available.
Slide the favorite brand from the shutter window
Liquor is being sold openly at Bhatkara intersection of the city even at 10 pm. For this, a small window has been made in the shutter of the shop itself. The customer stands outside the shop and the liquor contractor salesman stands inside. Near this window of the shutter the customer calls for his brand. On this, the salesman takes the money from there and slides out the bottle of his brand. In this way, liquor is easily available to customers one after another, even late at night. Abhay Command’s CCTV cameras are also installed at this intersection. If the police want, they can capture this entire matter through footage, but it is difficult to say why no one is putting a stop to the illegal sale.
Every action is being captured on camera, yet no action is taken
Such incidents are happening on camera in the city, yet the Excise Department and the District Administration have been kind to the contractors. If any clue is needed in such cases, the whole matter can be revealed only by the footage of CCTV cameras installed at the intersections. Now it remains to be seen how much seriousness the District Collector, Superintendent of Police and District Excise Officer show on such matters.
Difficult for family members to leave their homes
After drinking liquor sold at different places in the city, drunk people are seen fighting and abusing each other. Due to this, it has become difficult for the women and girls of the family to leave the house.
