In latest news from Doon, the district magistrate Savin Bansal acted sternly on the complaints of some women and elderly from Bahl Chowk off Rajpur Road about the operation of an unauthorised bar in their area. They told the DM that liquor was being consumed openly in the basement of a lodge well past midnight in violation of the rules.
Taking the complaints seriously, the DM directed the SDM Sadar to inspect. The SDM inspected and found that the complaints had substances. As per report, a licensed liquor shop was using the basement of a lodge to enable those who buy liquor to consume liquor. Tables and disposable cups/glasses were found in large numbers. It was also found that the people kept boozing till late night.
The DM ordered suspension of booze sale from the shop for 15 days as a punitive action.
