NEW DELHI: The Supreme Court On Friday, he suggested that states should consider indirect sales and home delivery of spirits in accordance with their statute and law to avoid liquor overcrowding amid the permanent coronavirus-induced blockade.
A bank headed by Judge Ashok Bhushan refused to approve any order in a public interest litigation (PIL) seeking clarity on the liquor sale and to ensure social distancing while selling at liquor stores during the shutdown.
“We will not approve any order, but states should consider indirect sale / home delivery of liquor to maintain the norms and standards of social distancing,” Judge Ashok Bhushan said in dismissing the petition.
The PIL, presented by a Sai Deepak, sought instructions for closing liquor stores for not enforcing social distancing, which is essential to prevent the spread of the coronavirus.
The petitioner told the superior court that he only wants ordinary people’s lives to be unaffected by the overcrowding in liquor stores during Covid-19.
Judge Sanjay Kishan Kaul, another judge on the bench, said the discussion about home delivery is already underway.
The superior court, after hearing the petition complaining about the breach of the security regulations in the liquor stores, observed that it cannot pass any order to different states, but they must consider the sale online and the delivery at home of liquor.
