Delhi Liquor Shops to Close Early This Weekend Due to Jantar Mantar Protest!
Delhi liquor vends to shut early this weekend (8 PM instead of 10 PM) as a precautionary measure during the CJP protest at Jantar Mantar. Stay informed about the latest restrictions!
Liquor shops across Delhi will operate with reduced timings over the upcoming weekend, closing at 8 PM instead of their usual 10 PM. This decision comes as the Delhi government has imposed precautionary restrictions in light of an ongoing student protest at Jantar Mantar.
The move was based on inputs from the Delhi Police, who flagged the need for additional preventive measures to maintain law and order in the central Delhi area where the demonstrations are taking place. Officials have stated that the temporary change in operating hours is primarily aimed at preventing any untoward incidents during the protest period and ensuring public safety.
A similar situation was observed on Thursday, when several liquor shops across the city unexpectedly closed earlier than usual without any prior public announcement. This led to many customers being unable to purchase liquor, forcing them to return empty-handed.
Unless further orders are issued, liquor shops are expected to resume their normal 10 PM closing time after the weekend concludes. This measure is solely precautionary and part of the government's efforts to manage the situation effectively.
