Liquor Prohibition In Gujarat

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 03 July 2018 This query is : Resolved
Dear Lawyers

I am from state of Gujarat where prohibition is in force by Govt.. In Gujarat any Indian citizen other than residents of Gujarat are given liquor permit. My question is that is it violations of Fundamental rights i.e equality before law as Gujarat Govt is not giving liquor permit to local Gujarati because of place of birth.. so can any one file petition for the same.

Thanks & Regards

These issues depends on the state of origin. In Gujarat Liquor is banned to the citizens of Gujarat only and it is not applicable to people of other states.

For example in our India the Liquor is banned on Govt holidays like Republic Day, Mahavir Jeyanthi and Independence day etc but there wont be any Prohibition for Foreigners and by showing their Pass Port they could avail the liquor in Five Star Hotels

It could be that you have misread the Law. The prohibition applies to all persons within the territory of Gujarat, unless exempted.
