Maharashtra’s tax minister, Shambhuraj Desai, hinted on Tuesday that the government is open to reducing the number of “dry days” when liquor sales are not allowed if people make such a demand.<\/p>\n

A dry day is declared by the government when the sale and service of liquor is prohibited. National holidays like Independence Day and Republic Day as well as the birth and death anniversaries of Mahatma Gandhi are counted among the dry days. Some holidays and religious days have also been declared dry days by the state government.<\/p>\n

Responding to a query from reporters in Mumbai regarding the plans to reduce the number of dry days as it causes some inconvenience to the liquor consumers, the minister said, “If people make a request, we will consider it. But the demand has to come from the people.” The minister did not give more details.<\/p>\n
