The Gujarat High Court has dismissed a plea against the Gujarat government's decision to allow liquor home delivery. Background: The issue began when the Gujarat government announced that it would allow liquor home delivery during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, some individuals challenged this decision in court, arguing that it would lead to increased drinking and law and order problems. Parties: The petitioners were individuals who opposed the decision, while the respondents were the Gujarat government and the Excise Department. Legal issues: The main issue was whether the government had the authority to allow liquor home delivery. Court observations: The court observed that the government had the authority to make decisions about liquor sales and that the decision to allow home delivery was not arbitrary. Significance: The dismissal of the plea has significant implications for the liquor industry, as it means that home delivery will be allowed in Gujarat. This decision is likely to be welcomed by the liquor industry, which has been lobbying for home delivery. The court's decision also highlights the importance of government authority in making decisions about liquor sales. The case has now been closed, and home delivery of liquor will be allowed in Gujarat.
