SC notice to Centre on plea for robust policy for age check at liquor sale points

IndiaTimes Monday, 11 November 2024
The Supreme Court is requesting the central government's input on a petition advocating for stricter age verification at points of alcohol sale and consumption. The petition, filed by an NGO, highlights the lack of robust age-checking mechanisms despite varying legal drinking ages across states. It also opposes doorstep liquor delivery, fearing it could increase underage drinking.
