There will be limited liquor distribution in the state of Andhra Pradesh from today. This is part of the prohibition being implemented in a phased manner.
The quota is being decided like this as part of the new excise policy.
IMFL – 3 bottles
Foreign liquor- 3 bottles
Spirit- 3 bulk litres
Beer- 6 bottles
Toddy- 2 bulk litres
This quota can be taken by an individual without any permission. But in future, it could be reduced further. On the other hand, the Telangana Government has started the exercise for the new excise policy for the current year. There is no scope for prohibition here in the state of Telangana. In both the states liquor sales and excise revenue forms the major part.
It has to be seen how far the prohibition can be implemented properly in the state of Andhra Pradesh.
