56,000 Liquor Bottles Worth 4 Crores Seized In Dry Gujarat

In a major enforcement operation in Gujarat, authorities have seized a staggering 56,000 bottles of Indian Made Foreign Liquor (IMFL) valued at over Rs 4 crore. This operation is considered one of the most significant crackdowns on illegal liquor trade in the state, which adheres to strict prohibition laws. The confiscated liquor was reportedly intended for distribution across various districts, highlighting ongoing challenges in curbing illicit alcohol sales in the region. Gujarat has maintained a dry status since the enactment of its prohibition policy in the 1960s, yet illegal trafficking of alcohol continues to pose a challenge for law enforcement. Officials emphasize the need for sustained vigilance to combat the underground liquor trade and protect public health. The successful operation has garnered attention and support from the local community, who are increasingly concerned about the social issues linked to illegal alcohol consumption. This incident underscores the ongoing efforts by law enforcement agencies to reinforce the state's prohibition laws and ensure compliance across all sectors.
