Govt. submits that plans afoot to opening of175 new outlets
The Kerala High Court has observed that it wanted to ensure that the teetotallers are spared of the problems faced by them due to the functioning of the liquor shops near their residence or due to long queues in front of the shops.
Justice Devan Ramachandran while hearing a contempt of court case relating to shifting of a liquor observed that it was an open secret that every shop caused great vexation to children and women and the parents also feared that it would have a bad influence on the future generation. Therefore, the instances of extreme nuisances being caused in the neighbourhood of a liquor shop could not be lost sight of. It impeached on the Constitutional right of the citizen to live a life with dignity.
