NEW DELHI: The Mahagathbandhan’s Deputy Chief Minister candidate and Vikassheel Insaan Party (VIP) Chief Mukesh Sahani has said that if the Mahagathbandhan government comes to power in Bihar, it will review and amend the existing liquor prohibition policy.
“After our government is formed, we will reintroduce ‘Taadi’. The liquor ban in Bihar was meant for the welfare of the people and was expected to benefit them, but it hasn’t been successful. The government should review how much loss the state is suffering because of it… When our government comes to power, we will review it, ” said Sahani, on Wednesday.
The VIP leader emphasised that the prohibition, introduced nearly a decade ago, failed to achieve its stated social goals and instead caused large-scale economic losses and enforcement issues.
